I am graduate student at the University of Toronto in the Adult Education and Community Development program with a collaborative specialization in Environmental Studies. I received my Honours Bachelor of Science in Psychology and have a keen interest in researching the psychological motivators for pro-environmental behaviours. It was through experiences such as international exchanges to Germany and Australia and working with the City of Toronto in municipal politics that I realized the importance of experiential and community engaged learning.
I am an accredited flat-water canoeing instructor with the Ontario Recreational Canoeing and Kayaking Association. Some of my favourite activities include hiking, bouldering, and painting natural landscapes.
