I am Dhaval Patel, a proud Canadian since 2009 and a resident of Edmonton Ward H since 2012.
My family consists of my wife, a Registered Nurse (RN), and our two school-aged children. By profession I am a mechanical engineer working as a project manager, but my passion has always been serving the community. I hold a Master’s Degree in political science to support my passion for community services.
