At the beginning of my co-op work term with UWaterloo Alumni Relations in May, I had one-on-one meetings with every member of the team. It was a great way to get to know one another, learn about their roles and responsibilities, and it truly made me feel welcomed to the team.

It’s hard to believe that after five years, I am simply done my Psychology and Business degree at the University of Waterloo. No more lining up to buy textbooks, attending lectures, cramming studying for midterms. After all those days and nights sweating over whether or not I would ever graduate, I can’t believe I’m here.
In high school I spent many nights debating whether to study design or business. I made the decision to apply and attend the Arts and Business Co-op program at the University of Waterloo, fulfilling my desire to study both art and business.
