Presenter Information: Gurpreet was born and raised in Amritsar. Gurpreet knows inside out of this city. Gurpreet lived close to Sri Harmandir Sahib (The Golden Temple) and in fact her school was just a few steps away from the Golden Temple. After her school, she completed her PhD at Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. Thereafter, she went on to complete her post-doctorate fellowship with the University of Guelph in ON. Later, she moved to Regina with her husband and two kids.
