Dear Department members,
I wish to share with you some important staffing updates and announcements regarding our UBC Department of Psychiatry Administration Office.
Firstly, we are delighted to welcome Ms. Terena Zhao as our new Administrative Assistant to our six Division Heads. Terena is a recent UBC graduate with previous experience working in a busy medical clinic, and in her new position, she will act as the Division Heads’ primary point of contact. She will be responsible for coordinating meetings, organizing events, and undertaking other administrative tasks as needed to support our Division Heads and their activities. Terena will be situated at Detwiller Pavilion at UBC Hospital and may be reached by email at psychiatry.divisions@ubc.ca.
Additionally, we are excited to share that Ms. Ikuko Azuma has joined our staff as Project Manager on a permanent basis. She initially joined our team as a UBC Hiring Solutions staff member, and has since done an outstanding job in supporting a broad range of projects and initiatives for the Department and Administrative team. Ikuko will continue to be situated at Detwiller Pavilion at UBC Hospital, and she may be reached by email at psychiatry.projects@ubc.ca.
Please join me in warmly welcoming Terena and congratulating Ikuko in their new roles on the UBC Psychiatry Administration Team!
I wish you all a safe and happy holiday season,
Vicky Yau
