Chase Mark

I will be completing my third year in post-secondary at UVIC after a summer 2023 co-op work term. Prior to my university pursuit at UVIC, I was enrolled in Camosun College where I learned many hard skills including sales strategies, entrepreneurship, and business analytics. Outside of the classroom, I am a competitive boxer, family man, and friend to many. I enjoy the outdoors, sport shooting, and lending a hand wherever it is needed. My passion for well-being stems from the hardships I have seen throughout my life; I am committed to making a positive impact wherever I apply my skills.

I gathered credentials from Camsun College in the first two years of my post-secondary career before transferring to UVIC. Now that I am enrolled in a far more business-focused environment, I understand where my skills should be applied. Although I had great success in accounting, marketing, and international business, I am still drawn toward operations management and will be specializing in service management in the coming September. I have noticed recent success with the RBC case competition, reaching the semi-final round and then proceeding to volunteer to support the finalists. My hard skills are continuously being developed at UVIC and my network is growing rapidly.
