Profile Text
Hello, I'm Sabrina - a passionate, creative, and dedicated career practitioner, educator, and entrepreneur with a commitment to community engagement, EDI, and a client-centered approach.
I work as the Manager, Work-Integrated Learning at Trent University where I oversee the institution's co-op programs and lead the Co-op Team at Careerspace. I designed and developed the institution’s first academic career development course and currently work as a Sessional Faculty Member, instructing the foundational course for co-op students each year.
Prior to joining Trent, I worked in the non-profit sector in community employment settings and settlement services, along with other diverse post-secondary institutions. In 2019, I launched my own business, Sand to Pearl Coaching, where I provide clients with individualized career counselling and organizations with workshops and trainings. I've supported over 350 individuals with career exploration, job coaching, and self-marketing, created over 250 hours of career development curriculum, and taught over 40 different dynamic workshops.
Career development is my passion. Having worked in the career development field for nearly a decade, I have supported diverse populations including marginalized youth, newcomers, post-secondary students, budding entrepreneurs, and those with high barriers to employment. I'm proud to be a Certified Career Development Practitioner with the CDPCBO and a Certified Career Strategist with Career Professionals of Canada.
I look forward to connecting with you!
