Proudest TOWES moment: My journey with TOWES
began as a work study student in the Corporate Readiness Training
Program (CRTP) in Bow Valley College. There are many wonderful
things that I could say about CRTP. The program is focused on the
job market and makes the best of my job experience from my country.
My proudest TOWES moment was getting hired. I am proud to have
overcome the challenges of entering the Canadian workplace, and
happy to be working at Bow Valley College.
What do you do outside of 9-5? In my free time
I enjoy studying English and Canadian history. I like to travel and
would like to see more of Canada when I get a chance.
If we could relocate TOWES anywhere, where should we
go? Somewhere on an island in Asia, maybe a beach in
Thailand where you can relax and organize your thoughts.
Favourite sports team? I don't follow sports
but I go to Zumba regularly.
Do you have any strange collections? I keep a
collection of Barbie dolls and small potted plants and flowers. Is
it crazy that I like to display them together?
If you could learn to do anything, what would it
be? I would like to speak English in a Canadian
accent.
