As a CCSP issued Career Coach, I worked 1-on-1 with students almost daily. In those meetings, we would stay surface level or dive deep into their career development. Whether those conversations lead to discussions on resume building, interviewing skills, career exploration, drafting cover letters, or a bit of soul searching, I always felt fulfilled after chatting with a student. I also am very passionate about the work I do in the classroom as a BUS 201 instructor of 40 students per semester. In this required career development course, we expand on many of the topics we would in a coaching session, but on a bigger scale. We also expand topics into building professional brands, developing LinkedIn profiles, and hosting an employer panel. Another major role is the oversight of the recruitment and implementation of the Business Undergraduate Mentoring Program (BUMP). BUMP gives roughly 25 undergraduate students each academic year an opportunity to match with a partnering employer to serve as a mentor for them.Key contributions: Redesigned the BUMP to optimize the interest intake and application process by using Microsoft Forms.Initiated a partnership with Athletic Department to partner in the planning and execution of Athlete Ally's Summit at the University of Louisville.Certified Career Services Provider through NCDA.

In addition to these events. I served as the fill-in lead for our largest recruitment event of the year, Cardinal Preview Day. This event welcomed nearly 1,400 guests that featured activities, information sessions, resource fairs, and dining for a full 8-hour day. I served as the number two planner for our two other large events, similar in scale. In addition to planning events, I supervised 5-6 student workers at the front desk of the office. I scheduled, mentored, and oversaw daily operations for them, including going through the hiring process two different times to bring new students on board. In the role, I was expected to operated within SLATE, Outlook, much of the Microsoft Suite, and collaborate with any and all student services that our campus had to offer, ensuring all students were represented and provided the needed information when making a college decision where they could feel included.Key Contributions:Led planning efforts for events that brought between 40 and 1,400 attendees to campus.Presented 5-7 times per month to prospective students and their families.Serve as the lead staff member during student worker trainings, facilitating discussions each day and seeing out the planning and execution exclusively of one day.Improved tracking of group visits by optimizing sharable data platforms, utilizing Google Sheets
