Darpan My Journey presents Dr. Arvinder Singh Bubber, FCPA, FCA the very first South Asian Chanceller at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. As founding president of SPARK Education Foundation, Bubber helped those who are economically challenged to realize the dream of post-secondary education while assisting with both fundraising and mentorship that benefit many young people in their quest for continuous learning.
