+            Confident speaker, skilled writer, and passionate teacher: I love to solve challenging problems and to learn about almost anything. That much has been true of me all my life; I connected the dots to computer science careers only recently. Now I'm a UBC computer science student and can add "joyful programmer" to the list!

-            My broad interests lacked direction at first. I drifted through two degrees this way, aimlessly chomping knowledge like a PAC-MAN without any certainty of where I should end up.
+            Those who have known and worked with me can vouch: I am known for <strong>avid learning</strong>, <strong>quality code</strong>, and <strong>peer support</strong>:

-            A struggle to complete my master's thesis pushed me to finally identify what workflow and skills to look for in a well-matched career. My analysis pointed to <strong>software development</strong>, reigniting long-held interests that I had only before seen as a hobby. I am now enrolled in a <a href="https://www.cs.ubc.ca/students/undergrad/degree-programs/bcs-program-second-degree" class="text-link">CS degree program at UBC</a>, working to master the foundational skills I'll need to succeed.
+            <strong>AVID LEARNING</strong>: You don't spend as much time in school as I have unless you really love discovering new knowledge. That's why, when I made the self-discovery to pivot my career path, I didn't hesitate to return to school to study computer science even after completing two degrees before. I love where I am; and this time—this degree—I love where I'm going, too.

-            From previous work I hold a BSc in psychology and a research-based MSc in marketing. My thesis developed a new theory for understanding non-listening interactions in high-conflict settings; a summary is linked on this page.
+            <strong>QUALITY CODE</strong>: When I learn new skills I strive to learn them thoroughly and well with a keen eye to finding out best practice. That's why after taking my first computer science course at UBC, I was trusted enough to be appointed lead grader for all student code assessment in a course covering the same material the very next term.

-            I aspire to design, write and maintain code for innovative software projects that improve lives. My psychology background gives me a strong <strong>user-centered</strong> focus, and I posess a high standard of <strong>excellence</strong> and dedication to <strong>learning</strong>. I aspire to join and work with tech organizations who share these values.
+            <strong>PEER SUPPORT</strong>: Success is not zero sum, and I love to learn by teaching. That's why, after seeing classmates nervous about practicing code interview skills, I created and taught an original workshop to break down barriers. <em>Oh No, Leetcode!</em> was a huge success, drawing over double the in-person attendance anticipated by the department that supported me to host it.
