My name is Alexandra Almonte and I am a graduate student in the Educational Technology program at Concordia University. Before attending Concordia, I worked as a Paralegal, Immigration Specialist where I gained professional experience in both U.S. and Canadian immigration. While holding different positions both in the public and private sector, my continued career advancements were made possible through self-teaching and the desire for continued individual development. Through these learning experiences, I have come to believe strongly in the potential of education to influence individual and organizational development.
