A little more about Renya (without fancy moniker and spelling).

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to make this less corporate. My life from 2024-2025 has been corporate, research, and professional language. The last two decades of my life have been chaotic, interesting, and almost unreal. So here are some fun facts!

• My favourite bands are the 1975 (yes, I know, I’m sorry), Cage The Elephant, Glass Animals, BETWEENFRIENDS, and lovelytheband!
  • You might find this very funny, so here is my Spotify.
• I’m divorced (or in the process of)!
• I love to travel and have hit 13 cities in 2025 (if your city is cool, aka has a coffee shop and a library, let me know and I’ll drop by)!
• My favourite colours are sanguine red and sapphire blue.
• Some people that I look up to are Marshall McLuhan, Aldous Huxley, Albert Bandura, Jason Colquitt, and more!
• My sourdough starter (named Sally) is my longest, and healthiest relationship (I’ve had her since January of 2024).
• I was cyber-schooled in 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade and therefore didn’t get a lot of social interaction, hence why I use the British spelling (a lot of literature I read was written by the English). It’s weird, and I’m trying to change it.
• I don’t like using my fingers to eat, so I will often have tongs, chopsticks, or I will use a fork and knife (yes, I have eaten pizza with a fork and knife).
• I looooove Garfield. In fact, I used to collect the McDonald’s Garfield mugs. I lost my collection when my ex-husband and I separated, but the love for Garfield is still there.
