Anita's history of living in Winnipeg and Vancouver before moving to Toronto.

Anita used to be a voice actress before getting into audio. Tangela asks "How dat work?"

Anita got a degree in Communications. She became fascinated with audio engineering while working in voice acting for animated series. She went back to school for post-production.

Tangela and Anita talk a bit about the experience of being in college as an older than the 18-21 year old crowd.
