Students explored the science of breathing — observing pig lungs, testing a glide scope, and learning how to intubate a patient. A fascinating look into the critical role RTs play in patient care.

It is a beautiful misty morning in #Yellowknife. A good day for watching dew glisten off of trees turning to autumn. This is my favorite time of year.

#Camping in the #NorthwestTerritories is unbeatable for views like this #Auroraborealis under moonlight in Wood Buffalo National Park. The eerie call of the whooping crane playing in the ponds below casts an ethereal vibe over the park.

What is it like living in #Yellowknife ?

Imagine the delight of being woken up by a strutting raven setting off your #Google Nest doorbell proximity camera.

Cute bird. They are much bigger than crows and very smart.

..it knows exactly what it is doing. 😴 😕 😌

I started freelancing in #webdevelopment as a teen.
Built 100+ sites.
Learned to code from books, before Instagram existed.
HT/XML, CSS, PHP, Ruby, Rails, PERL;
I burnt the midnight oil practicing with the #LAMP stack since 2009.
I envisioned immersive, fluid, metaverses would replace socialmedia.
