Humans of Telfer - Gaëlle Faye

“One of my happiest memories while being a student at Telfer was the incredible friendships I made. To this day, I am still amazed at the fact that this school is a community and that everyone who integrates it becomes part of a family.

The connections I’ve built through my classes, with my professors, as well as in clubs and other extracurricular activities, have opened my eyes and made me a better person. I’ve always felt that I was able to contribute to and become part of something big, considering that I came to Canada as an international student. My friends made my integration and adaptation to Canadian life easier, and this is one of my best memories of my time as a student at Telfer.

Now that I am an alumna, I have the opportunity to do the same for other students with my role as Career Engagement Coordinator at the Telfer Career Centre. I want students to have the same experience as me and carry that through their studies and bring that into their careers.”
