Meet Alex, a laid-back Environmental Engineering student in their third year at the University of Waterloo. Having navigated the ups and downs of co-op placements, Alex has learned to embrace the awkward moments and view them as mere learning experiences. They value resilience and often share their wisdom with fellow students, reminding them that everyone makes mistakes and that the most important thing is to keep moving forward. In their spare time, Alex enjoys hiking and volunteering for local eco-initiatives, channeling their embarrassment into positive action.
