Meet Victoria L.

"Working at PCL has allowed me to discover who I am as a person, thanks to the incredibly valuable connections I fostered with the team. I get to showcase, experiment and re-evaluate ideas based on my own perspective with a creative degree, while also gaining new skills with the help of others that can help me navigate across this ever-changing world. With that in mind, it makes me realize that my passion can be applied to a broad range of situations and that the work I put in transforms into a meaningful contribution for the community around me.

The most important takeaway from my work experience is to keep asking questions and to get clarity from others until you are confident to independently do the work you are assigned to do. When new projects develop, ideas tend to get tossed around while in the process of getting refined. This requires many exchanges of clear communication and feedback until it's polished. In the working world, you may end up getting involved in collaborating with people in different fields of expertise, so it's good to make sure that everyone, including yourself, is on the same boat! After all, the people you work with are more than happy to help you out as someone who's still learning to try new things– which is a feat you should already be proud of."

Victoria is a fourth-year Bachelor of Arts student who is majoring in Music and minoring in Art & Design.
