Hi everyone,
I’m very pleased to announce that Kristy Brimacombe will be joining the UBC Department of Psychiatry’s education team starting Monday, December 3, 2018. She will be taking over from Sophie Gardner as the Education Coordinator for our undergrad program and our three postgrad subspecialty programs – Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Forensic Psychiatry and Geriatric Psychiatry.
Kristy is joining us from Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies where she’s been in various roles over the past five years, including her most recent role as the Senior Thesis & Information Clerk, working with students, faculty and staff from across the university. She has a Master of Library and Information Science, so we’re very much looking forward to benefiting from her strong organizational skills. Please join me in extending a warm welcome to Kristy.
Kristy’s contact information is below. Please note that she will be using kristy.brimacombe@ubc.ca rather than the generic email account edu-prog.assistant@ubc.ca.

I would also like to thank our Interim Education Coordinator, Sophie Gardner, who has been with us since early July. It has been a pleasure to have Sophie on our team assisting us in the interim. We will all miss her upbeat attitude and baking! A big thank you to Sophie for her hard work and help in preparing for two internal reviews and coordinating our subspecialty selections process. We wish her all the best on her next placement. Sophie’s last day will be Friday, January 4, 2019.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best regards,
