Hi! My name is Melissa Lavoie. I'm a former educator from norther Ontario, currently an instructional designer for Learning Bird, and have worked as a GIS-Education Specialist partnered with Mushkegowuk Council where I had the opportunity to visit a lot of really cool people and places - one of which involved polar bears.

I graduated from UBC's Master of Educational Technology program in November 2019, am founder of the Walk with Us project partnered with Google Earth Outreach, and am currently learning from web development and how to use a CNC plasma cutting machine.
