·¬ÇÑÉçÇø

Tips for Success

One tip that I would offer new international students starting their program at UVic is... To remember that the ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø has many programs aimed to support international students. Don’t hesitate to reach out for help. 

One of the best ways for international students to get connected during their time at UVic would be... Get involved! Join some clubs and groups on campus.

Student Success Tip: Map out your semester using your phone or a calendar and create a schedule for some of the high-stress times in advance.

About

I grew up in the province of Saskatchewan and always gravitated towards multi-cultural spaces for socializing, studying and working. This led me to a rewarding career working with newcomers to Canada and international students in various roles over the years. Since moving to Vancouver Island, I was excited to continue my career supporting international students at the ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø. I have been licensed as a Regulated International Student Immigration Advisor (RISIA) since 2023 and look forward to supporting you with your immigration questions!

Fun fact

I lived in Ireland and Scotland and travelled Europe during my gap year(s).
