Coordinated Cognitive Journeys


Cohort YEG-GA [Num. 1 22:03] and X.Z. Like Travel

Cohort YEG-GA Describe.jpeg

After she graduated from the Edmonton Public School system, XZ obtained both a BComm and an MBA from the University of Alberta School of Business. She now is intimately involved in the coordination of programs for International Students, a feature of her current journeys buttressed by her affinity for cultural diverse environments found Worldwide. XZ is also a careful student of communications strategies and the value of social media for advanced educational programs.

The Cohort YEG-GA subseries, a close relative of the #CNote carvings seen elsewhere in Project Y150 YEG-GA, is derived from a piece of Turkish marble “upcycled” from a home renovation in Edmonton. This carving is one the first of small legion of "mobile micro monuments" developed within the larger thematic context of sustainability and a new Homeglen School of One Project called #CSustainable. Cohort YEG-GA #1 is dedicated to female coordinators of cohort programs for International Education in Canada, especially those of them who maintain interests in jazz, fashion, food, music and animal welfare.

Upcycled Old Stratchcona Journey
Garneau, Edmonton, May 11, 2017. 3° /0°.

This photo was taken the day after the Oilers were eliminated from the playoffs. I was feeling particularly sad about it, but the weather was gorgeous so I decided to grab a photo. I wanted to remember the awesome feeling of being able to share in our team’s triumphs as a whole city, after over 10 years of disappointment. The blue skies were a reminder that even though the playoff run was over, that there were brighter days ahead.
