My name is Rees Pillizzi and I am an environment and sustainability student at the University of British Columbia. I am originally from the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois but moved to Vancouver to obtain a degree at a leading university. I try to live my life outdoors as much as possible. I enjoy applying my knowledge of the processes and concepts taught in the classroom by observing them in the real world. I am focusing my studies on GIS to one day pursue a career in the field.
