About Me
My name is David Toews, and I will readily answer to both David and Dave. My last name is not English, as you may notice, but a dialect of German - pronounced Taves" (like the hockey player Jonathan Toews). I have a BSc from Brock Univeristy in mathematics mixed with computer programming and concentrating in statistics. I joined the Niagara College graduate cirtificate program for GIS - Geospatial Management in September 2015 to explore a practical application for my skills. I have become deeply fascinated by GIS and I am honoured to have been awarded this scholarship. I currently live in Ontario but I love to travel. I have lived and worked for 4 years in British Columbia (near Vancouver) 1 year in Austria (near Vienna) and 3 months in Peru (in Lima). My favourite hobbies are reading and riding my bicycle. I have been hired to start working for GM Blueplan Engineering Ltd. in Hamilton, Ont., in June 2016 as an Asset Manager!

In my own words...
I am very priviledged to have been awarded this scholarship. It has given me great confidence in myself, especially considering that I have only been involved in GIS for less than a year! I really appreciated being able to work on such a rewarding project, and to be able to display it to all of you! Thank you very much.
