Jessica is a second year Master of Information student in the Knowledge Management and Information Management concentration. She has an undergraduate degree in Global Health and Health Studies at the University of Toronto. In addition to being a full time MI student, Jessica is a student library assistant at two libraries on campus.
As a Social Committee Co-Chair for MISC, Jessica is excited to organize socials and events where students from all MI concentrations can interact as one interconnected community! In her spare time, she likes to jam on her guitar, (try to) learn K-pop dance choreos, and explore new restaurants!
Veronica is a second year User Experience Design student. She came to University of Toronto from a background working in finance and teaching yoga in Italy after getting her undergraduate degree in Business and Political Science from Kalamazoo College. As a Social Committee Co-Chair, she is stoked to plan events (in-person and online) as well as help make everyone in the iSchool community feel welcomed. She also owns a cat named Coconut who is the real mastermind and always wants more belly rubs. In her spare time she likes to go practice yoga and go on long bike rides. Feel free to reach out and say hi, especially if you have an event idea you’d like to see!
Ariana is a first-year Master of Information student in the User Experience Design concentration. Before the University of Toronto, she earned her undergraduate degree at the University of Waterloo’s Stratford School of Interaction Design & Business. As a Social Committee Co-Chair, and as a person beginning their iSchool career in the middle of a global pandemic, she is looking forward to helping students engage with each other and feel connected while we’re apart. She
loves chats and feedback, so feel free to hit her up with any ideas or suggestions you may have for future events, or just to say hello and make a new friend! Apart from school life, you will likely find her making all sort of things with her hands, head-bopping to some Broadway beats, or singing/art directing a virtual all-BIPOC cappella group.
