YOUR MOTIVATION:
What makes you want to giveback through SOS?

“One of my favourite parts about SOS is always seeing how enthusiastic students are when they become aware that we are a not-for-profit organization. In addition to this, I love teaching and seeing the “moment” when students finally understand a concept. It brings me a lot of joy. ”

YOUR EXPERIENCE & ACHIEVEMENTS

Konrad has been involved with SOS for over 2 years now. He has spent the entirety of his time as an exam-aid instructor, 1 year as a VP of Educational development, and 1 year, so far, as a Co-President of the UVic SOS chapter. Konrad has always been enthusiastic as expanding UVic SOS as a chapter and branching out to try new things.

FUN QUESTION:
If you could have dinner with any person, living or dead, who would it be - and why?

To be honest, this is a very difficult question and I do not think I can narrow my list down to one person for all contexts, but if I had to choose based on what I currently want to learn more about, I would pick David Goggins. His perseverance and grit, shown by his life story, is something to strive for. I would love to pick his mind to learn about what makes him tick.

PERSONAL INTERESTS/HOBBIES:

I really enjoy research, volunteering, powerlifting, reading, hiking, and spending time with family and friends! 🙂
