Hi Everyone!

 

My name is Elyse Robichaud and I am running to be YOUR First Year IPE representative! As future nurses, we are going to have the opportunity to collaborate with those from all sorts of professions … so why not get a head start right? I am running for this position in hopes to help bridge the gap amongst future healthcare professionals on campus, creating one seamless collaborative team.

 

A little bit about my past experience …

Having recently graduated from McMaster University, I really took the time to get involved with life around campus. I sat on the executive committee for McMaster’s Relay For Life for 3 years, taking on various positions including First-Year Rep, Volunteer Coordinator and Social Coordinator. I had the opportunity to work for the McMaster Students Union as a Promotions and Advertising Coordinator and sat on the Commerce Executive Committee as a Sponsorship Director for the Graduation Formal. I have learned a lot from each one of these roles about planning, organizing and carrying out large events as well as the importance of teamwork and collaboration in order to achieve success.

 

If elected, I hope to integrate a variety of events promoting both social and intellectual growth that will help us learn, bond and network with our fellow U of T health faculties. I hope to connect us with the necessary resources enabling us to grow together while simultaneously keeping our goals in mind.
