Emma Sexton
IndE 1T9
Emma Sexton excelled both in and out of the classroom during her time in MIE's Industrial Engineering undergraduate program. When she wasn't studying, she devoted much of her time to writing, directing and performing in Skule™ Nite productions, the annual U of T Engineering musical and comedy revue hosted by the Engineering Society. Emma says her involvement with the revues allowed her to explore her creative interests while also learning more technical skills from her engineering courses.
Emma's involvement with Skule™ Nite is one of the reasons she won the L.E. (Ted) Jones Award of Distinction presented by the University of Toronto Alumni Network in 2019.
