What roles do you have in the Department of Athletics?
Gryphon Activity Camps Counsellor
What do you enjoy most about coming to work?
What I enjoy most about coming to work is getting to work with a diverse background of people who bring so much to our team. The high energy, laughs, and friendships that come from working in this position is incredible.
How has working here changed or impacted your time at the University of Guelph?
Working here has allowed me to meet so many new people that makes me feel even more at home while I’m on campus for classes, work, or going to the gym. It has completely changed how I feel when I come to campus - I look forward to running into people who I’ve come to meet here.
What skills has your role taught you that you know will help in the next job you get outside of UofG?
Knowing that I want to work with children and families in a clinical context in the future, working as a camp counsellor has helped me develop many skills that will be transferable to future jobs for me outside of UofG. How to develop rapport and relationships with campers and their families, how to deescalate situations that can be stressful, patience, working in a team setting, among many others are some of the skills I’ve gained during my time here.
