-
I am a student from the University of Toronto, gaining a strong educational background in Health & Disease, Immunology, and Physiology. I have ample work experience that ranges from tutoring, managing social media, event planning, graphic designing, as well as outreach. I also am a healthcare worker, and work part time for major healthcare institutions like SickKids Hospital. I also do research, and have worked on projects to do with Multiple Sclerosis, sleep disorders, and asthma. I have a wide array of technical skills including graphic designing I did for student council at university, as well as freelance creative writing projects. I am a hard and passionate worker, and once I set my mind and goal on something, I am adamant on exceeding expectations and meeting deadlines to the best of my ability 100% of the time. I believe my portfolio of experiences and education will make me an asset for the project I take on through Riipen.
