Program Manager -Western University 

Wellness Education Centre

Promoted to the role of coordinator to supervise the wellness space on campus during organizational restructuring with the objective of creating a swift and easy transition plan. Managed and mentored 25+ staff members during their intensive training while overseeing various wellness projects across campus. This role required strategic vision and a varied organizational skill set. From event planning, such as Bell Let’s Talk, to coordinating wellness initiatives across campus, the portfolio involved community and university stakeholders and relations, campus-wide engagement, and student education programing.

  • Managed a diverse group of student volunteers, training them to facilitate wellness discussion and education.

  • Increased social media engagement by 80% from the previous year while producing social media content on a daily and weekly basis. 

  • Coordinated seven successful educational campaigns over course of the academic year while increasing student engagement through workshops, events, and workgroups.

  • Collaborated with 10+ campus and community groups to promote wellness through lectures, workshops, and events, such as group counseling, therapy dogs, and student groups.

  • Developed five distinct wellness education collections while maintaining seven other collections totaling over twenty thousand resources available to students and the community.

  • Developed and implemented the yearly strategic plan making sure that it fit with both the new Western Experience strategic plan and the transition plan for the Centre itself.

  • As this position was phased out under the new strategic plan, I took the opportunity to finish my PhD.
