Ann Roboski - Adapting at the Wilson Talent Center

Hello! My name is Ann Roboski and I am a second-year AmeriCorps VISTA serving with Capital Area College Access Network (CapCAN) in Lansing, Michigan in the Pathways to Employment Program. I am serving at the Wilson Talent Center as a College and Career Adviser. CapCAN’s mission is “making completion of post-secondary education an achievable reality for all residents of the capital area… to increase college and career readiness, participation, and completion.”

Last year, I split my time between Dansville High School and the Wilson Talent Center, while this year I will be spending all of my time at the Wilson Talent Center! The Wilson Talent Center offers career and technical education courses for high school juniors and seniors in the Ingham Intermediate School District area.

The Wilson Talent Center is operating online and in-person to protect individuals and communities and to prevent the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). It’s been about two weeks since I’ve begun serving in-person at the Wilson Talent Center. I have really enjoyed being back in the building and seeing people again. I am no longer greeted with smiles as I walk down the halls but, crinkling eyes above masks are always a welcomed sight!

Although this is my second year as a College and Career Adviser, the position looks quite a bit different. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I have had to change my outreach initiatives with students and the Wilson Talent Center community. I now heavily utilize Google Voice, Google Hangouts, Zoom, social media, and email to provide resources and to connect with students.
​
Over the past few weeks, I have been spending my time planning virtual events for the school year, building connections at the career center, assisting students with college applications, and answering other college and career-related questions. I am excited to take on another year at the Wilson Talent Center with a new perspective and a sense of confidence!
