SKED: PANDEMIC PIVOTS: 30-year-old Karina Walker got laid off from her job in the River East Transcona School Division as a continuing education program coordinator, back in May of 2020. Unsure when they'd call her back, Walker decided it was the perfect time for her to fulfill her childhood dream of becoming a videographer and photographer by taking an online course almost exactly this time last year. "I had nothing left to lose," she said. Several speed bumps due to provincial COVID-19 restrictions later, Walker's finally beginning to receive a steady stream of work.
