Selena Yang

In first year, I wish I knew all the routes that connected the academic buildings from the inside so I didn't have to walk outside in cold weather during winter.

Involvement outside the classroom: Vice-President of Finance for Swaggerloo

I enjoy...

  • Bullet-journaling
  • Exercising (going to the gym)
  • Singing
  • Sketching

Fun fact: I've never had a nosebleed before.

Favourite place to study: Second floor of the Quantum-Nano Centre. You will always find me there after class.

Favourite place to eat in Waterloo: I sometimes just drink bubble tea for lunch...so gotta love Sharetea!

Favourite or most recent co-op work term: I've only done one co-op work term so far. I worked as a Social Media and Marketing Associate for the Recruitment Team for the Faculty of Mathematics. I helped manage and update social media accounts such as WeChat and Weibo and I also helped in creating the Chinese Math viewbook. On top of that, I completed many marketing and recruitment-related projects. It was a productive work term and it is completely different from my previous high-school jobs. I got to meet a lot of administrative personnel of the Faculty of Math and I greatly developed my communication skills. What surprised me was how quickly each day went pass because I'm always kept busy during the work hours.

Plans for life after CFM:I want to start working right after graduation. However, I haven't decide on one career that I love...but currently, I took an interest in consulting. Before I start working, I would like to spend a few months travelling the world with my friends (if they are up for it)!
