I am committed to AAPS members and strive to diligently protect job security, increase rehiring rate, advocate the importance of members’ work, and improve university transparency.

I joined UBC in 2009 as web developer in Library and was transferred to central IT 15 months ago. I have witnessed three layoffs since the transfer: it reminds me how vulnerable our job security is. After former UBC President’s resignation, a major media absurdly accused management and professional staffs to be blamed for that: it reminds me the need to advocate our importance in UBC’s operating.

In addition to protecting and advocating our rights, I also consider professional development vital for us. Last year, I was elected into AAPS board and served on Professional Development Committee. I worked with AAPS staffs and the committee to bring a variety of PD sessions to members. If re-elected, I will continue that work and enhance PD sessions by listening to your feedback.

In my free time, I like gardening and is building skills in woodworking. I live in Richmond with my wife and two children.
