In this role I fostered career and professional development through comprehensive coaching, programs, and communication for over 3K students at Cleveland State University. I engaged with employers of all industries to develop talent pipelines, internship programs, and strategic partnerships. Some of my key contributions include: I worked to elevate diversity, equity, and inclusion practices by developing DEI hiring and intern management best practices for employers and coordinating events and panel conversations on DEI topics such as Navigating the Workplace as an Early-Career Professional, DEI in the Workplace, and Day in the Life Series. I created a university-wide Exploratory Pathway Strategic Priority Plan to support over 4k transitional exploratory students by creating a streamlined database of resources, action plans for students, and a referral process with academic advisors. I successfully integrated a career management and exploration assignment requirement for 2K first-year students per academic year to leverage their access to the Handshake platform. I launched the first Career Development Student Advisory Council to incorporate student voice into career development services and programs. I delivered interactive and engaging workshops, presentations, and career development content to enhance skill development and forward career readiness outcomes.
