ABOUT ME

Subtopic

Honours Bachelor of Liberal and Professional Studies in Human Rights and Equity Studies from York University

I started out my undergrad at the University of Waterloo in Public Health w Co-op. These first few years very much informed my further studies and continue to be very important to my ways of thinking, despite deciding not to graduate from this program.

Studying at York gave me perspective far beyond my classes. I will always be grateful for the peers I learned from.

Experience with Technology

Until recently I have been resistant to technology because I found it difficult to understand how to apply it. I have been lovingly referred to as "luddite".

I have tried to integrate technology to help with organizing and executive function. So far my Galaxy Fit Watch has been the only thing I can figure out!
