Getting to Know You

Welcome to the learning cohort! We're so excited to have you here!

As it's day 1 and there are a LOT of us, let's take a moment to get to know one another. The assignment is simple: Tell us about you. Who are you? Do you have a photo? Where do you live? What do you like? Are you in school? Do you have any pets? Can we see pictures of them??

 

Feel free to be creative with your answer. (For example, mine is a plant-care card! 😉 )

 

I'm looking forward to "meeting" you all!

  • Hello everyone!

     

    My name is Kanika Chaudhary and I am a current fourth year studying at Cal Poly SLO (go Stangs!!). I am from San Diego but currently living off-campus in SLO. Here's me: 

     

    IMG_5427.JPGMy hobbies include long-distance running, cooking plant-based meals, reading sci-fi novels! My favorite (and easiest) meal to prep is avacado toast with sourdough bread topped with onions, tomatoes, lemon juice, and "everything but the bagel" seasoning. 

     

    On campus, I have super involved with the Women in Business Association and am very passionate about female empowerment and equity. 

     

    As for pets, I do have a rescue pitfall mix- he just turned 8 years old but still acts like a puppy. Fun fact, he is bilingual, since he responds to both English and Hindi commands!

     

    I look forward to working with you all throughout this training! Feel free to add me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kanika-chaudhary29/

     

    Best,

  • Hello Everyone!

    I am super late on this introduction, but better late than never right?

    So a few things about me:

    Name- Kimberly, but you all can call me Kim.

     

    Current Hobbies- I love to cook. I make a big dinner for my family every Sunday. I just discovered my love for boxing, so I am currently into that. Since moving closer to my mother, I have gotten into sewing my own clothes, which is really fun. I also like going to the dog parks with my recuse Turbo. She is a Catahoula Leopard Dog. And beating my children in Uno, haha.

     

    I love to travel, but have not done much this year but going back and forth between Missouri and Texas, where I currently reside. I have lived in a few states in America and my favorite would have to be North Carolina.

     

    I have two adorable boys. My oldest is 9 and my youngest is 3 going on 30 hahaha. Just full of personality!

     

    Lastly, I am studying Health Informatics at the College of St Scholastica.

     

    I cannot wait to work with all of you over the duration of this program.

     

    Kim
