About

Hello! My name is Uma Chandran and I’m a Communications Coordinator at CNW Group.

I have an BA (hons) in Media, Information, and Technoculture (MIT) with an additional major in Computer Science, as well as a post-graduate certificate in Corporate Communications + Public Relations.

Over the years I’ve done communications at companies and organizations including IBM Canada, Sun Life Financial, Big Brothers of London and the iSchool @ the University of Toronto.

Beyond my interests in communications and technology,  I’m also an avid reader, a music lover and a movie fanatic.  I love sports (especially soccer), spending time with friends and family, travelling, and playing with Chellam, my family’s black Labrador retriever.

I have had an online presence of some form since around 1997 through various websites and blogs – most of which are no longer active. This new blog will serve as a place to document my experiences and thoughts on social media, public relations and communications, and any other life experiences I may encounter through the end of my undergraduate career and beyond.
