Personal

Hi! 👋
I'm Arden (they/them). My curiosity, creativity, and passion for inclusive, accessible design drive how I approach work and volunteering.​
​
Continue on to learn a bit more about me outside of work!




I am that person who
takes a photo of almost
every flower they see.
I can't help it!








Books!
I've always loved reading. Learning from non-fiction and exploring creative worlds in fiction has always excited me.
​
On the right, I was gifted a mug with my top 9 favourite books of all time a few years ago. Needless to say, I have a few more I'd add to that list now!
​
In 2025, I started using StoryGraph for the first time and the granularity of the data is just so exciting!! All that to say, please enjoy some graphs of the 130 books I read in 2025.


The Outdoors!
I love getting outside - hiking on local trails, kayaking when I can, and getting to see incredible sights like the mountains on the west coast or waterfalls in North Vancouver or gorgeous trees in Savannah.
​
My favourite winter activity is feeding the
chickadees in my local conservation area!
