Hi, my name is Julia and I graduated from Port Credit Secondary School in 2015 and received the ScotiaBank Business and Leadership Award for business courses and extracurricular activities, such as DECA.
Education: In 2020, I graduated from Western University with a business degree, specializing in Finance. During my time at Western, I completed a year-long internship at RBC, where I explored the areas of Business Transformation and Human Resources (complete opposites, I know haha).
Work Experience: I’m working full time at Oxford Properties Group – a Canadian based real estate company. Prior to that, I had various summer jobs in non-profit organizations such as BridgeWay Family Centre and Eva’s Initiatives for Homeless Youth. It’s great to explore different industries and career paths!
Amplification: I am using Oticon More 1 hearing aids with the ConnectClip remote microphone.
Hobbies: I always try to stay active by going to the gym, playing tennis, skiing or dancing (Hip Hop and Contemporary are fun). Aside from staying active, I enjoy investing in the stock market and trying new food recipes!
