Levar Bailey was told he might never walk. Now he’s about to graduate as a nurse.

At 18 months old, Bailey was paralyzed by a tumour pressing on his spine. Doctors gave him slim odds of surviving surgery. He not only survived, he eventually walked again.

This month, he’ll walk across the stage at TMU as a 2026 Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) graduate.

And for Adham El-Khadem (Master of Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship ’21), it’s rethinking how we gather. As founder and CEO of Venu, he’s connecting people to spaces that bring communities together to celebrate, collaborate and connect.
