Memories of some fantastic internships

Hi! Just a quick note to let you know that I published a new blog post, about some fantastic internships (aka "co-op placements") that I had at the beginning of my career.

It's called Memories of some fantastic internships:

During my CS undergrad at Carleton University, I had the opportunity to do a bunch of internships.1 Looking back, I can’t help but think how lucky I was! I got to work on some great teams, learned a ton, and had a lot of fun.

One of the things I really miss from this period of my career was how frequently I got thrown into the deep end. I joined teams that I was not at all qualified for, and was handed projects that required expertise that I didn’t (yet) have. And this was totally expected!
