Class of 1996
Bachelor of Arts History

What have you been up to since leaving Crandall?

I graduated from Atlantic Baptist University (ABU) in 1996. After being part of the workforce for a period of time, I returned to school, this time I obtained a diploma in Business and Accounting.  It was the combination of my diploma and my university education that helped me get my next job in the accounting department at Cavendish Farms. It was during my time with Cavendish that I entered the professional accounting field and entered the Certified General Accountant (CGA) program. In 2010, I graduated with my professional designation, CGA, and today I’m a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA-CGA). I’m currently working on my Bachelor of Education (B.Ed. Adult Ed.) through University of New Brunswick.

A lot has happened in those years, including marrying my amazing wife Timna (Williston) Briggs and raising our three awesome children: Evan (’05), Maisie (’07), and Lana (’10). While I’ve held positions from Junior Accountant to Controller, I now teach Business for New Brunswick Community College at their Moncton campus.

How has Crandall prepared you for the future?

ABU taught me how to apply myself academically and spiritually, and I’ve carried those principles throughout my studies and life. I formed many strong bonds with classmates, staff and faculty and they helped me see how to be a Christian and stand true to my faith – no matter what.
