Yes I Work in IT, No I Can't Fix Your Computer

By Erin Hickman on Mar 1, 2024

My journey in information technology

I graduated from university the year that Google launched Google Earth. And four years before that, my high school librarian told us about these new things called ‘search engines’ and how she thought they would change the world.

When no one is perfect: how to provide negative feedback

By Shaha Alam on Jun 28, 2022

I've recently had the opportunity to reflect upon our annual staff appraisal process, specifically around the quality of feedback. One frequent observation is that reviews and comments often lack details, making appraisals challenging.

I am stronger than this. I am stronger than my anxiety.
