As a graduate assistant at York University, I worked as a Stage 1 transcriber for the Tyndall Project; this entailed looking over letters (to/from Physicist/Mountaineer John Tyndall) that had been transcribed in the first stage (0), and correcting errors or filling in gaps as needed. Having graduated from York, I continued to work with the Tyndall Project as a Stage 3 transcriber, responsible for training new transcribers, until February 2013.

I was part of the team at Arrow Leadership throughout the duration of my studies at Simon Fraser University. I tried my hand at a variety of roles including Administrative Assistant, Communications Assistant and Special Projects Co-ordinator and, as a result, have had opportunities to help out with communications (design, editing, and printing), IT and web support, as well as some data entry and systems support.
