I am thrilled to join the Center for Career & Professional Development as the College of Business and Economics liaison! CCPD provides students with career education and connections by actively developing opportunities for students to connect with industry partners and alumni through externships, internships, co-ops, immersion trips, career expos, full-time positions, on-campus interviews, and career programs.
I am a Certified Professional Career Coach, Certified Employment Interview Professional, and Certified Professional Resume Writer. I have been part of the Center for Career & Professional Development since January 2017, and I am very excited to exclusively work with the College of Business students to help them reach their highest potential!
I am looking forward to a great year!
Additionally, please make note of some other changes to CCPD:
- Handshake is your career lifeline! Students are invited to create an account and profile on Handshake (Lehigh’s Career Management Platform) to be able to:
- Schedule appointments with me
- Create a customized job/internship search and apply to opportunities
- View information regarding times/locations/details of our various career and employer events
- Access vital career development resources
- Career Lab will be offered every day from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. During this time, students can have resumes reviewed or ask career-related questions without an appointment. Just drop by! It will be a combined version of Resume Lab and Quick Questions!
- We will be offering group sessions on Wednesdays at 4:10 p.m.
- Sessions will include topics: Resumes/Cover Letters, Job/Internship Search, LinkedIn/Networking, and Interviewing
- Due to the large volume of appointments requested during on-campus recruiting, our staff is opening up more opportunities to meet the needs of students outside of meeting one-on-one to discuss basic career exploration topics (i.e., how to write a resume/CL, how to create a LinkedIn, etc.)
- Students are encouraged to attend the group sessions as well as Career Lab prior to scheduling a one-on-one appointment
Mark your calendars! Lehigh’s annual Career Expo is on September 13! Students are encouraged to visit Handshake to learn about the various ways that they can best prepare. Remember, you only have one chance to make a first impression!
