I am a Bachelor of Science student from McMaster University with a focus on Life Sciences and pursuing a minor in Psychology. I can communicate effectively as demonstrated by educational opportunities and workplace experiences with drafting proposals, crafting emails, and delivering presentations. I am eager to learn and grow personally, academically, and professionally. I have interests in the areas of neuroscience, psychology, biology, development, and mental health and the relatedness between these topics.
