Experience

I have an abundance of experience supporting students, staff, and service users at Trent and at other institutions, having worked in education and administration at Wilfrid Laurier University, Trent University, and OCAD University. I am working hard to meet you where you are at, and working collaboratively to ensure you have the best possible experience.

My top priority as President of the TGSA for the 2026-2027 year will involve addressing many of the issues that have been identified by graduate students including, but not limited to, food insecurity, health care access, and student supervisor relationships. My goal is to ensure we are supporting graduate students as fully as possible in the years to come.

Experience

Hi I’m Davida, your VP of Student Affairs! I’m a Master of Management student at Trent with a passion for community building and creative storytelling. I help organize events, manage our socials and keep everyone in the loop. Outside of TGSA (when I’m not shuffling to catch the bus) you can find me with my head stuck in a romance book, or in this instance on my phone cause I love E-books (don’t judge). I hope to make this year feel more connected for all grad students!
