What brought you to Mohawk College?
It is the closest school to where I live. It was my first choice from high school and first choice when returning after having my children.
Tell us about your favourite Mohawk experience?
My first year I got a chance to meet everyone and explore the campus. My second year when returning was during Covid so everything was completely online. Having both experiences I believe prepared me for my career as I was familiar with in person along with the hybrid work model that a lot of employers now use.
What impact has Mohawk had on your life?
Mohawk has made a huge impact on my life. I received a scholarship in my second year. I did my second year while pregnant for my son. I had him in November, so I continued remote classes after he was born. I had a part of my program where we go on a “mock” interview. This turned into a real interview and I was offered a position at a large law firm in Ontario. I began working there in April 2021 and graduated in June 2021. Mohawk set me up the best possible way for my future.
What are you up to now?
I have worked at this law firm for 2.5 years now. I have no plans on leaving and I continue to learn as I am here. I am very thankful for my time at Mohawk.
