Executive Summary Overview I have been a part of Ryerson’s Tri-Mentoring Program for the past year. The Mentoring Program is designed to match incoming students with peer mentors who are established in the Ryerson community. After serving as a peer mentor, participating students then have the opportunity to be matched with a professional mentor. The professional mentor is typically one who has inspired the student, and displays the personal attributes and accomplishments that the student wishes to emulate. For me, that person is you, President Sheldon Levy. I have followed your open engagement with students and witnessed the momentum you have generated for Ryerson since 2005. You are a dynamic leader and continually contribute to academic quality, innovative research, and student success, while also taking part in organizations, groups and boards within Toronto. My hope is that you will be willing to engage in a professional mentor/ mentee relationship with me for the duration of the 2008/09 academic year. I believe my leadership experience in the Ryerson community positions me as an ideal candidate to be your mentee. This partnership would require only a small amount of your time, and in addition to benefiting me, I believe it will be beneficial to you, your office, as well asthe Ryerson community.

Background I am in my final year of the Collaborative Nursing Degree Program and have held leadership positions within many student groups. I have been described as a student leader by both faculty and peers and am recognized for my commitment to community service in Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, Germany, Ireland and India. My personal philosophy is to continually develop myself to serve others, and find the opportunity in every problem. My Long-term plan is to enter Healthcare or Post-Secondary Administration. I am passionate about caring for and developing others, and want to create, as well as work in, environments with strong leadership, dedication to excellence, and where innovation and inquiry are encouraged. I want to help others find in themselves what motivates and helps them to succeed. I would like to use this experience to encourage faculty to support students, and those students to take up opportunities while attending Ryerson. I am innovative, adaptive and willing to listen and learn. Words cannot express how grateful I would be if given this opportunity.

Proposal 1. To meet with you for 15 minutes once a month for mentorship, at your convenience. 2. Alternatively, I would be open to forming a group of five student leaders to meet for group mentoring for 30 minutes each month.
