Continue to assist the Inflow and Infiltration Reduction team with business processes, communications and program planning. Projects include: assisting in the enhancement of the short- term flow monitoring program and communication processes.

Worked with the Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) Reduction team to manage and develop programs to reduce I/I in the municipal wastewater system. The experience exposed me to infrastructure design, and inspection processes along with project management tasks. Over the course of 12 months, I explored new methods to quantify base infiltration, liaised with various teams to manage the development of an automated data transfer tool, created a new outreach program for residents using social media and wrote the first team on-boarding guide for future interns and team members.

Worked in a team of 5 to organize the annual sustainability conference at the University of Toronto. Tasks included securing the MaRs Discovery District and aiding in the development of the conference theme "A Network of Sustainability".

The Canadian Association of Food Engineering aims to connect UofT students with opportunities in the food industry through a variety of events such as plant tours, networking sessions and competitions. I was tasked with ensuring that students were informed of upcoming opportunities through the development of marketing strategies. Working with a team of 2, I executed strategies and developed graphics.

At Suits U we build confidence in students by giving them access to affordable professional attire and then donating all our profits to UNITY Charity. Our goal is to ensure that students have both the skills and look to make the best first impression they can. As Director of Operations I organized the Dress to Impress sale with 500 + attendees, and resulted in $5000 + in sales and managed 24 + volunteers. I also aided in hiring new members most of who went on to leadership roles within the organization.

At YNCN we provide UofT engineering and computer science students with professional development opportunities. Over the course of 6 months I created and executed marketing strategies for Engineering Corporate events at the University of Toronto - including the largest student run career fair in Canada with 2500 + attendees. I also assisted in the creation of a guidebook to be distributed during the event through the design of the book and coordination with printers.

Under a PhD student I spent a summer exploring the effect of pH changes on the formation of iron polyphenol complexes in tea. The successful addition of iron to tea can lead to increased nutrition in global residents. Results were obtained through extensive work with a pH meter and UV- Vis Spectrophotometer and pH meter and were analyzed and summarized using MS Excel.
