About
Hi, I’m Sheena
I am a writer, a dreamer, a yogi and a renaissance woman.
My background is in journalism, but my path has swayed over time to content marketing and digital strategy. These days, my work dances somewhere in between. I am particularly interested in moving more into the user research side of things. As a curious lady, interviewing people, learning new things and researching are some of my favourite things.
You can find my words regularly on the Adobe Blog, where I cover the intersection of psychology and UX design. I’ve been published in VICE, xoJane, THIS Magazine, Huffington Post, The Next Web and various other publications. Previously, I was the editor of Yonge Street Media and I co-ran a popular local website called Toronto Music Scene.
I am also a certified yoga teacher. My classes are body positive and inclusive, which I am super proud of and passionate about. I’m a crystal-wearing tarot reader who often smells of juniper berry, grapefruit and black spruce, my three favourite essential oils. I blog about this stuff at Inner Empress Yoga, which is also where you can find my yoga teaching schedule and book a reading.
My greatest strength is my energy.
My greatest weakness is a perfectly cubed piece of Swiss cheese.
