I started my career in education teaching English to school children in a fishing village off the coast of Hiroshima, Japan. It was during that year, living away from my family and culture, without language skills or teaching experience that I fell in love with teaching. Being isolated and a little bit shy, I learned that teaching could be a tool—a tool to connect with others, to learn, and to grow. Since then, I have spent 17 years in education--teaching, learning, and studying.

I joined the Centre for Innovation and Excellence in Learning in 2017 after 13 years in the higher education sector in the United Kingdom. Before coming to Vancouver Island University, I managed the education development portfolio at the University of Essex, which ranged from curriculum design and development with staff to training and development for students at all levels, from first-year undergraduates to final-year PhDs.

Meara Kimball December 9, 2022 - 2:17pm

Meara began her academic career at VIU with no clear goal beyond a minor in math. She discovered that she greatly enjoyed her requisite computer science courses, and this inspired her transfer to UVIC to pursue a BSc with a combined major in Computer Science and Mathematics.

Jenna Auringer February 6, 2024 - 1:39pm

Jenna began her post-secondary career at VIU in 2013 with a goal of being able to use the skills and knowledge that she learned in her post-secondary studies to help members of her community. After some experimentation, Jenna found a passion for media production, web design, and programming which led her to graduating from VIU with a Major in Digital Media Studies.

Since then, Jenna has had a number of different jobs including being a Library Assistant and an Audio Technician before settling down into her current position at VIU as a Learning Technologies Support Specialist.
