Chris, the working student

Balancing study and professional work

Chris Releford is a Cybersecurity Major and a track athlete. While studying, he also works for an information technology company. By leveraging Glean, he has been able to integrate his academic pursuits with his demanding work schedule.

Since many of lectures are online, Chris has the ability to record them and digest them when he's not at work.

"It's nice to get off of work, go over the recordings and listen to it again and like, take notes from it."

Glean acts as a reliable recording device, capturing all the key information from classes, especially when he's had a long day at work.

"Glean is not only helping people with disabilities, but people that...have external forces, like having work or need to take care of kids and all that. Like, it doesn't just help people with disabilities, but it also helps other people who have other things on their plate too."

Being able to study effectively with the help of Glean, Chris has seen an improvement in his academic success.

"It definitely improved my grades in my core classes," Christopher states. "It most importantly improved my efficiency in studying and writing down notes."
