It’s been a pleasure working with Danielle this past year, and we are sad to see her go, but we wish her the best of luck!

I came to the Women’s Business Center two years ago (wow, two years!) as part of the Career Earning Excellence Program (CEEP) at Canisius, an advanced work study program for students. Since then, I have gained so much… in experience, in my abilities and knowledge of business and entrepreneurship, and most of all, in my dedication to the Women’s Business Center mission.

This past summer has been particularly enriching, because I started a term of service with Western New York AmeriCorps, which helped fund my full-time position at the Women’s Business Center. This has been such a valuable experience for me. I’ve been able to have more hands-on interaction with clients – especially with the one-on-one Online Directory training. I had the opportunity to attend the SBA regional training in New York this past June. I’ve also been able to contribute to the planning of our fall conference: “Succeeding in Turbulent Times” – The Canisius College Entrepreneurship Symposium.

I really can’t say enough about the Women’s Business Center. As a woman and a member of the Buffalo community, I am proud to call myself a member of the WBC team.

You’ll be hearing more from me soon!
