Thank you Meghan Hanbury,

A shout out to my former supervisor/department head back one of the BEST gigs I had as a student back in the day. Working at Lakehead University, there was quite a few jobs I tried my hand at, and the Phon-A-Thon was one of my favourites (hands down). Was a very fair gig, lots of room for part-time work and even more room for social gatherings before/after. Everyone you work with is awesome and all you need to do is have a pleasant conversation with someone who already graduated from Lakehead. Sweet? Totally!

Well, over the years (as you will see), I have kept in touch with Meghan (my supervisor/department head). Not only is she an amazingly understanding facilitator, but also just a wonderful person. Thank you for always keeping me in your thoughts Meghan, means worlds!

Hi Carm,

"So glad that you approved and I’m looking forward to being able to show you the final product.

If you’re specifically looking at Alberta, would you like me to put you in touch with the Calgary Chapter president?  I’m sure she’d be more than happy to answer your questions about the province and maybe even offer some hints about job hunting?  There are so many grads located there.

Sounds like sending a package won’t work out at this point in time.  But we will compromise by sending you a housewarming package whenever you move back to Canada.  I’m so glad that you like that we’ve kept in touch.  You were definitely one of our stand-out students in the Phone-a-thon and you were such a great volunteer.  I’ll always remember your family being the first ones in the door at Convocation and they jokingly asked if I knew you.  That was such a great moment. 

It was also a privilege watching you grow during your Lakehead experience and head off on an adventure to China.  I’m sure it has felt isolating at times but it’s certainly a journey to be proud of.

All the best!"
