Before this new employment endeavour, York University was my home for more than five years, as I completed both my undergraduate and master's at the Keele Campus. I loved my time at York; every day was a new challenge, and I loved the collaborative space York provided for both my peers and professors. Nevertheless, after graduating, I was quickly offered a new employment opportunity, and I was up against many people for the latest job—people who were much older and more experienced. Nevertheless, my education from York University was a tremendous asset. They have stated that my educational background is something companies are actively looking for, which gave me immense pride in myself and the University I come from. As such, without York, I would have never landed this job.
