BA with joint major History and Sociologyemail Erica Phone: 902-867-3357
I am from Halifax and went to JL Ilsley High School. I played competitive sports throughout my life, and was a member of the StFX women’s volleyball team. I currently officiate volleyball and I enjoy playing volleyball, golf and squash. Matt Dolansky and I have some pretty competitive squash matches!
During my time at StFX, I participated in a student exchange to Australia, course-based service learning, and was a student ambassador for the Embassy of Australia to promote studying abroad. Upon my graduation in 2012, I began my current position as a Student Success Leader. I love my job because it provides me with ample opportunities to meet new people, experience new cultures, and share my passion for StFX. When I'm not working or travelling, I like to read, relax at the beach and keep active with family and friends.

BBA (Major in Finance)Email Xinyuan 902-714-7878
Xinyuan is native to China, where she grew up in Changzhou, Jiangsu province. She came to StFX, which would come to be one of her best life decisions and graduated in 2017. Nova Scotia has become her second home and joined the student success team with great enthusiasm soon after the conclusion of her studies. During her time at StFX, she was the president of the Chinese Students Association, where she would have great success in developing closer ties between the Chinese community and the rest of StFX. Helping to bridge cultural differences, Xinyuan was responsible for arranging many successful Chinese celebratory and cultural events and immersive Mandarin language programs which were actively attended by both domestic Canadian and international students alike. Being an International student herself, Xinyuan brings a lot of passion to her student success leader role and is inspired to help share her experiences and knowledge to future students of StFX in China.

BBA (Minor in French)email Kelsey Phone: 613-220-2389
Growing up in Ottawa, Ontario I never thought I’d end up calling StFX my home for over 4 years but here I am, after completing my four-year BBA degree, spreading the great word about StFX all over Eastern Ontario and Quebec! At StFX I was heavily involved in student life across campus including serving as Orientation Committee Co-Chair, volunteering with campus societies, competing for the Gerald Schwartz School of Business competition team and even bartending many Wing Nights at the famous Golden X Inn! Nowadays, my spare time is spent eating way too much watermelon, trying to relive my figure skating glory days and spending as much time at the beach as possible. As a Student Success Leader, not only do I get to share my love for the University everyday but I get to make connections with and support students from all over transition into an exciting new realm of life. I love what I do, so please feel free to contact me at any time!
