"In 2021, the opportunity presented itself to intern at the University of Canterbury, working directly with the UC Wellness team. The internship was designed for me to practically apply the learning and theory from the BHSc degree, specifically Health Promotion. My role was to provide a student's perspective on how UC can create sustained engagement with their wellbeing resources. As someone who is genuinely passionate about wellbeing and seeing those around me flourish, this was an exciting project to be a part of. One of the best things about this internship was being part of a great team of staff, who all share the same vision for enhancing wellbeing among students. I really enjoyed the experience and I value the growth I’ve had, both personally and professionally for future career opportunities".
