About Me

Hello everyone! Welcome to my site, where I will be sharing all my EDCI Blog posts. My name is Lauren and I’m in my fourth year of Health Information Sciences (HINF) at the University of Victoria. I decided to join HINF because of my interest in how the increase of digitalization is transforming healthcare in Canada.

I have had the opportunity to work hands-on in a healthcare setting, completing two work terms, one in the Mobile Health department at Fraser Health Authority and the other in the Pharmacy Informatics department at Island Health Authority. Overall, these experiences have increased my interest in health informatics while providing me with real-life skills

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I am a big fan of travelling and doing activities outdoors. Living on the island, one of my favourite things to do is spend time at one of the many great beaches here.
