• My first two co-op terms were with University of Waterloo Campus Services and Environmental Services as project coordinator on various projects outlined under co-op experiences below.

• For my third co-op semester, I worked with SCS Consulting's Group Engineering team in the Cost Sharing department. I assisted project managers with tasks including takeoff calculations, area measurements, and creating detailed cost estimates using Excel and Civil 3D to develop area maps and cost-sharing figures for clients.

• In addition to this, I run an at-home pet sitting business, to learn more:
