Humans of Telfer - Annesha

“I am not sure where the time went. Three years ago I was an apprehensive 1st-year student arriving to Ottawa with unease and no certainty of what was ahead. Now, I find myself an evolving and ever-curious 4th-year student, though still with some degree of uncertainty.

Going into my last year of university, there is the inevitable and daunting question from family and friends: what’s next? In my 3 years at Telfer, I have sought out the support from my network of peers, colleagues, faculty members and even people beyond my network. Over time, the what’s next plan has evolved, turning from finite titles into a series of stepping stones. So as I prepare for the year (and even years) ahead, I am grateful for the support I have gotten along the way.”
