UPDATE: I've now moved on to working for a huge Alberta bank, and I honestly love it! The work environment is tres cool, and the company does care about its employees. I consider myself extremely fortunate to be working here.

studygirlpic COMMENTS ON EDUCATION
I enjoyed my University education. The faculty bases itself on developing a strong foundation in many areas of business as well as an extra focus on non-business areas. Before one is accepted into the faculty, one has to complete exceptional studies in optional areas including mathematics, science, philosophy, English, and more. Once accepted into the faculty, students are introduced to the gigantic world of business. Accounting, finance, marketing, operations management, MIS, and more are requirements of a student's course load. Since I majored in the MIS area, I also have a very firm grasp of current and evolving technologies. There was also an ample amount of both individual and group work. Before graduating, everyone is required to take a course entitled Policy and Environment which serves to encompass the many facets of business into a challenging problem-solving course.

As evidenced through my various web sites, I love making web pages. I was first introduced to the web back in 1995. We didn't have fancy HTML authoring programs, so I had to learn all the HTML on my own. I'm glad I did, since one needs to rely on such knowledge to do those "tweaks" necessary for detailed and exact web sites. In fact, this entire web site was created in a text editor. I also just enjoy making web sites on my own during the little free time I get.
