My name is Sean and I am a fourth-year geography student at The University of British Columbia. I love exploring the natural world here in British Columbia, there really is so much to see and I could never get bored of the mountains.
Thanks for dropping by, I hope one day we can meet off the internet! In the meantime, I have created this lovely blog which I hope will tie you over. On the top header, you will see links to multiple categories of my work. Most of the content relates to Geography, however, you might also find writing samples from outside the discipline. I am always interested in constructive feedback so make sure to add a comment if you had any thoughts about my work.
Much of my work relates in some way to how humans interact with each other, the built environment, and the natural world. How we relate and coexist with the natural world in our cities is very important to me.
I grew up in the Fraser Valley and spent a considerable amount of time in BC’s interior (around an hour outside of Kamloops!). I watched as foresters and farmers worked with the land, navigating around the complexities of British Columbia’s landscapes. It wasn’t until my post-secondary studies that I realized the extensive intellectual landscapes, in the province, and how navigating them presents a unique challenge.
I hope in the future to study some type of resource planning, merging my love for the environment with my passion for people to help have an impact on the world. Even though I acknowledge the immense difficulties this entails.
