Bio

I am a fourth-year Bachelor of Social Work student looking to make a difference. Through various projects on Riipen, I hope to gain practical experience in partnering with organizations and communities on initiatives that better the human experience. My wish is
to be able to use critical thinking and self-reflection to build on my strengths and creative problem-solving while also learning areas where I need growth. My goal is to apply the knowledge and awareness learned here to my future social work practice and work in my community.
