was raised by my parents to never lose sight of my goals and to always have a positive work ethic.

They also put a huge trust in my expertise and often ask me to give advice and suggestions for their work which ultimately increase my confidence as a designer. On the other hand, the only downside of working at SFU EHRS is its commute time.
