Highlights
Some notable highlights along the way
Nov 2025. Started working as a UX Researcher at D2L
I joined the UX Research team! I am so fortunate that everyone I work with is a mentor :)
May 2025. Sporting Life 10k
First race! I got to run with my best friend! Happy Mother’s day. PR 54:02.
September 2024. First Half!
Ran a half-marathon! I was so grateful for the encouragement my two best friends gave me the month prior. This was on my own time, so it was a good moment when I could mentally be my own cheerleader. PR 2:07:55.
Joined the most wholesome run club at Waterloo Running Room this month.
May 2024. “Kaitlyn”
A past colleague (a mentor and friend) from my 3rd co-op (in 2020) named his baby after me based on my work ethic and personality. I was so honoured and humbled! AWE.
May 2024. CHI ‘24 Conference
Got to student volunteer (SV) at my first research conference! It was INCREDIBLE.
Fun side note: A PhD student and postdoc from a collaborative lab became my friends. Our flight there was cancelled, then rescheduled for 12 hours later, and included a detour to Saskatoon, SK, CA.
