It is humbling and an honour to be invited to teach and share ethical healthcare challenges in the virtual PA classroom and beyond. I especially enjoyed teaching and learning with the PA class of 2019. I was constantly personally and professionally challenged and inspired by the class: it was terrific. To be honoured with the Outstanding Teaching award in the BScPA Program is truly wonderful: I will not forget the class of 2019.
