• Drafting Grant Fund Agreements for the Great Lakes Guardian Community Fund.
• Scheduling appointments and meetings for Branch staff.

Tell prospective students a bit about how your studies at York helped you to get where you are today.

The Specialized Honours Bachelor of Public Administration (BPA) program, Management stream, at the School of Public Policy and Administration (SPPA) provided me with an in depth understanding of both the broader context and intricate workings of governance while stressing the importance of accountability and ethics. With this understanding at hand, it was rather seamless for me to transition from school to public service work as I was able to market myself effectively. Further, the practical learning experiences offered through the BPA curriculum exposed me to the 'nomenclature of governance' which has enabled me to be an effective communicator in the workplace from the get go leading to positive outcomes.
