@jennyleeshee I loved everything about that commute, every time. So pastoral, so connected to nature and colleagues in that way. (And that’s how memory works)

@Patrick_ORourke @MobileSyrup @journeydan @inkblotca Looking forward to listening to you again, wherever you go.

After nearly a decade at @MobileSyrup, I've decided it's time for a new challenge, and May 17th is my last day at the publication I've played a significant role in building. I want to thank @journeydan for taking a chance on me all those years ago, and @inkblotca for giving me the opportunity to grow as a writer, editor and leader. I'm also grateful for @BlueAntMediaMedia's stewardship of MobileSyrup over the past several years. I'm tremendously proud of how MobileSyrup has grown to become the voice of Canadian consumer technology reporting. Whether it's telecom, smartphones, gaming or weird tech-adjacent content like Tim Hortons’ new pizza, our small but nimble team that punches well above its weight class, has focused on creating engaging, meaningful content that resonates with our audience. I'll always be a fan of Canada's top technology publication, and I look forward to watching it continue to evolve and grow. I'll have more on what's next for me soon, but I'll still be covering the consumer technology industry just like I have for over 15 years. I love cool tech and gadgets too much to do anything else 📱.

Bravo for this update! DQ Global Standards influenced the development of the Digital Wisdom program at @HavergalCollege, where identity, empathy and perspective-taking are at its core. #HCX
