Stefanie Lamonaca Caputo

What I enjoy most about being a Student Success and Academic Advisor, is being able to shake hands and congratulate the students I have helped over the years at convocation. There is no greater satisfaction than the feeling of being a part of their journey and knowing I played a small role in their success. I enjoy being part of a team that strives to strengthen and mentor students. I think what inspires me most each day is knowing that I have the ability to change a student’s life by providing help, even in a minor way, whether it’s updating a checklist, supplying information, or listening to their stories. As a student myself, I can empathize with them and truly understand their moments of happiness and frustration. I am glad that I can support them on their academic journey.

My hobbies and/or interests

Learning has always been one of my greatest joys. Whether it's through academia or picking up a new skill in my spare time, I always make it a point to try and incorporate learning something new into my daily routine. Coming from a talented and artistic family, music has been and always will be one of my biggest passions. From learning to play the flute, clarinet, and tenor saxophone (the clarinet was my favourite), to singing in English and Italian, it's a truly liberating experience and one that makes me happy. A hidden talent of mine is that I can also tap dance. Aside from my musical interests, my hobbies include reading a good book (love a good mystery novel) or catching up on some of my favourite TV shows. Ziplining, water skiing, and the CN Tower Edge Walk, are just some of the interests on my to-do (one day) list.
