On our latest episode of the CHASIcast, we have the pleasure of speaking with a critical member of the CHASI team: our very own Esther Jiménez Atochero. Esther is CHASI’s senior research assistant, a role that sees her heavily involved in everything from the day-to-day operation of the Hub to our biggest research projects. In the Fall, Esther will be leaving CHASI to begin her master’s program as Carlton University.

Throughout the podcast, Esther shares her insights on UFV and her experience as an international student finding her academic passion, her feedback for UFV on what we can do to create a better learning environment, and her drive to make real changes in our communities.

Hosted by CHASI’s director Dr. Martha Dow and recorded in CIVL Radio’s studio at the University of the Fraser Valley, the CHASIcast is available to stream below, or on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music/Audible, and other platforms!
