“Receiving this scholarship enabled me to put my best foot forward and prioritize academics by alleviating much of the financial stress associated with affording tuition and living expenses. Thanks to the JLL Award, I was able to forego a part-time job and instead allocate my time towards extracurricular activities such as the Portfolio Management Foundation which have significantly enhanced my learning experience at the UBC Sauder School of Business.”

“We celebrate Carson's remarkable achievements and perseverance. At JLL, we firmly believe in supporting and nurturing talented individuals from diverse backgrounds. It is our privilege to contribute towards making a meaningful difference in their lives and empowering them to pursue successful careers,” said Diane Cunha, Head of HR, Markets, JLL Canada.
