“Liana Salviejo (she/her) is a current Climate Action Technician at YCCBC and a recent graduate of UBC, with a Bachelor of Science in Global Resource Systems. Her background lies in a variety of environmental topics, such as climate justice, sustainability, and food security, and she is particularly interested in the intersection between climate change and health. Liana has been involved with a number of environmental organizations in the past, including her time at Be the Change Earth Alliance, and has worked on several research projects, notably one that examined the influence of the Big 5 Canadian Banks at UBC as fossil fuel financiers.
At YCC, Liana has enjoyed being able to apply her knowledge from past experiences while also getting to gain new hands-on skills through the variety of climate action projects that her and the crew have worked on so far. Some of the most fun days on the job for her have been those spent with HUB Cycling and teaching kids on bikes, but she also appreciates being able to attend conferences and networking events to learn from other passionate climate leaders. A recent empowering moment for her was speaking in front of Vancouver city council to support a motion for a national YCC.
In her spare time, Liana enjoys spending time outdoors and playing ultimate frisbee!”
I reviewed the handyman accessible bathroom offerings in the Washington DC area and was impressed by the detailed service options like door widening, tub conversion, and grab bar installation. A small improvement: it would be great to see more before/after pictures or case studies of past clients.
Checked out the UX/UI Design arm of Cyngro — love that they start with deep user research and prototypes before final visuals. My suggestion: include more before-and-after screenshots or conversion metrics so potential clients can see exactly what “intuitive high-performance interfaces” look like in real use.
Explored the spiritual healing counseling services in Palm Desert, CA and was impressed by the mix of mindfulness and compassion. It’s the kind of setting that encourages real personal growth and a stronger sense of peace.
I looked into their software development offering and was impressed by how they emphasise custom solutions and agile processes. It would be great if they included more client testimonials or detailed scope examples to give a clearer idea of what “custom” really means.
Explored the HelloSays Auto Services area and I really liked how easy it was to navigate. The page is well-presented and gives a good idea of the local area focus. Just one thing — if more verified businesses or reviews were added, it would feel more complete and reliable. Still, it’s a good setup for people searching for auto services nearby.
