Abby Sigel (BMgmt '24)
Current student
I really love that the student community is such a part of the city, but not the only thing in the city.
Abby Sigel knew she would like studying at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 in Halifax. She just didn鈥檛 know how much.聽聽 聽
As a child, Abby and her family visited the east coast, and she became very fond of this part of Canada. Not surprising, then, that 鈥榮omething clicked鈥� when she toured 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 campus.
Unable to find anything quite like the Bachelor of Management at other universities in Canada, Abby says she was drawn to the program鈥檚 teaching of 鈥渢angible real-life skills.鈥� And the optional work-term sounded enticing.
Three years into the program Abby took a position with a small event-planning company in Halifax. It鈥檚 where she received 鈥榟ands-on鈥� experience 鈥榙oing everything鈥�. Abby says it was just after the pandemic and everyone wanted to host an event.
Anticipating a 9-to-5 position, Abby quickly realized she鈥檇 have to work evenings and weekends. Even though it was trying, Abby鈥檚 grateful to her undergraduate student advisor who helped her through this tough time.
Looking back on it, she鈥檚 only grateful. That position led to another, a summer position at Dal Innovates, a research, innovation, and entrepreneurship hub in the Faculty of Management. Responsible for social media and event planning, Abby feels she has even more skills for when she graduates.
With one more semester to complete, Abby isn鈥檛 worried or anxious about her future. She鈥檚 looking forward to it. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 know where I鈥檓 gonna be next, but I feel ready.鈥�
Right now, she鈥檚 happy to be a student, in a city she loves, right next to the sea.
