✨CICE Alumni Spotlight: Success in Action✨
After graduating from the CICE Program in 2017 with a concentration in Culinary Management, this alumni has continued to build a successful and meaningful future.
Kim has worked as an Usher at Caesars Windsor for the past seven years. She is also running her own business creating homemade dog treats, bandanas, and pet accessories. Additionally, she is involved in the community through volunteer work at the Downtown Mission and is considering future studies in either Paramedics or Early Childhood Education.
One of her favourite memories from the CICE Program was meeting new people and learning new cooking and baking skills. She says the program helped prepare her for life after college by teaching valuable real-world skills she continues to use every day.
Her advice to future CICE students is to never give up and always keep trying your best, even when things feel difficult. Since graduating, she has been especially proud of gaining long-term employment, living independently, and successfully opening her own business.
Kim’s story is a wonderful example of determination, growth, and the lasting impact of the CICE Program. Way to go, Kim!
