Amanda Allen, Researcher
Amanda lives by the motto, "today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday." As such, she is currently pursuing her PhD in English Literature. Her dissertation revolves around the forgotten female junior novels of the Cold War era and the power bubble they created for female editors, librarians, and jacket-cover illustrators. In her non-academic (that is, "real") life, Amanda paints portraits, kayaks, and enoys sitting around doing absolutely nothing at all.

Reading website. Jocelyn enjoys TV crime shows, reference books, and

Drew Small, Studio Projects Co-Ordinator
Drew. Small. Is it true that small Drew Small drew small Drew Small
small? Perhaps. For now though, let's just say that he's completing
his MA in English and Humanities Computing, and making vegan cupcakes.
A little bit of this, a little bit of that - he's not quite a
generalist, and not quite a specialist - thank goodness
interdisciplinarity is hip these days. As for his personal interests,
it's probably best not to ask - he tends to rant.

Amy Stafford, Researcher
Amy is currently working on an MA in English at the University of Alberta. Her thesis is on (auto)biography in the work of Canadian writer Carol Shields, although she is also interested in eighteenth-century English literature. Amy likes to kick stuff in her spare time, which she expresses by playing soccer. She also enjoys travelling, eating steak and watching hockey - because you can take Amy out of Alberta, but you can't take the Alberta out of Amy . . .

Kelly Zenkewich, Digital Imaging Curator
Kelly is currently working on completing her Bachelor of Science degree online at Athabasca University. Her work can be seen on most of the sites at Streetprint, but more than likely is going on behind the scenes. Kelly's interests lie in urban landscapes, online communication, photography, and looking at books with lots of pretty pictures. She may or may not respond to someone calling her "Scan Monkey".
