Reflecting on Gratitude, Growth, and New Beginnings... As 2024 comes to a close and I reflect on an incredible year, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the wonderful people in my life who have made this journey so special. 🤍 To the past, present, and future presidents of ISACA Vancouver Chapter — your vision and leadership have built a foundation that inspires us to grow and achieve more. Thank you for your continuous guidance and support in helping us shape the future of our chapter. 🤍 A heartfelt thank you to the fantastic volunteers of the ISACA Vancouver Chapter. Your unwavering dedication and contributions have been the cornerstone of our chapter’s success in the first half of this term. We’ve made an impact together, and I am excited about what lies ahead. 🤍 To my colleagues, professors, classmates, friends, and family—thank you for being my support system as I navigated the challenges of my first semester of graduate school at Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University. Your encouragement has been my anchor, and I am deeply grateful for your faith in me. 🤍 A special shoutout to my former manager at BCNET, Tamara Klein, who gave me my first full-time job and set me on a career path that I am proud of. Congratulations on your retirement, Tamara!
