Ivy He

This week as part of our ongoing “Meet the Student Services Team” we would like to introduce Ivy He. Ivy is the Faculty’s Receptionist and is the friendly face behind the reception desk in Student Services. Read on to learn more about Ivy:

Tell us about yourself and what brought you to your role with Pharm Sci Student Services?

Prior to working at the faculty, I worked at a non-profit organization and assisted people from different age groups and cultural backgrounds. As the first point of contact for visitors to the Faculty and the Office of Student Services, I strive to provide the best experience for the students and visitors.

What is your role within Student Services?

I help students with printing credits, room bookings, supplemental and deferred exams, lab coats, and other enquiries. I also assist with different events such as the Dean’s Luncheons, Dean’s Reception, and Multiple Mini Interviews.

What do you enjoy most about your position?

I enjoy seeing our students become successful in their professional career. It makes me very happy when students come back and tell me that they enjoyed their summer job working in a pharmacy or  that they were hired for a position they were seeking.

What do you do in your spare time?

I enjoy dancing and watching movies.

What is your favourite Vancouver winter-time activity?

Sitting by the fire, drinking hot chocolate and watching a movie at home.

Do you have any advice for students?

Other than studying hard in school, start to develop your professional network and get involved in different professional development opportunities. Aim high, work hard, and give back.
