Davis Candidate
Program: Child and Youth Care
“My name is Ashley and I am a second-year student Child and Youth Care student at Davis! This course has helped me improve my ability to form meaningful connections and relationships with others. Furthermore, it has provided me with advocacy abilities, allowing me to present unique ideas and a strong drive to affect positive change in our community. My innate passion for people has been strengthened by my position as a Peer Mentor on campus, where I interact with students on a personal level, acquiring invaluable insights and providing essential support and resources. Furthermore, I have taken proactive measures, such as arranging pop-up events and participating in community development activities. As a student ambassador, I've developed a deep grasp of prospective students' goals which has helped me better comprehend the campus atmosphere and the needs of our student body. Furthermore, my participation in the SSU's advocacy committee has given a forum for discussing relevant topics and developing successful awareness-raising techniques. I am the Vice President of the Cozy Club which is in the process of become official, its a club that creates space for students to have those meaningful conversation within a comfortable environment. Participation in SSU-organized cultural and informational events, such as karaoke nights, concerts, and bingo events, has not only provided networking possibilities but also allowed me to engage with varied groups of students while having meaningful experiences.”

Write about one of the current student issues you selected above. share why advocating for this issue is important to you:
“Being an international student with friends from all over the world, I've seen firsthand the sacrifices people make to achieve success— many times at the expense of their health. We've all heard too many tales of sleep deprivation, unhealthy eating habits, and demanding work schedules. I am even more passionate about spreading awareness about health and well-being as a result of this direct experience. I have seen firsthand the negative consequences of ignoring these important facets of life. Setting self-care as a top priority is crucial for both long-term success in professional endeavours and personal well-being. My mission is to raise awareness of the value of leading a balanced lifestyle and to motivate people to prioritize their health in addition to their career goals. I want to enable others to pursue their ambitions and live better, more fulfilled lives by raising awareness of health issues.”
