- Bio
-
I am a student at Concordia University studying Psychology and Law & Society passionate about mental health advocacy, research, human rights, and legal systems. Through my academic work I have studied psychology and law and its interactions with various areas of society. Courses in human rights, mental health, and social policy have shaped my desire to work in community-focused, research-driven spaces. As an HR intern through a Riipen project, I conducted interviews, led the onboarding process, and managed several teams of interns to ensure operations ran smoothly. I also contributed to research on inclusive hiring practices. This experience allowed me to apply classroom learning in a professional setting while developing leadership, coordination, and communication skills.
My academic background and work experience have equipped me with a unique perspective on human behaviour and its intersections with various areas of society. These experiences have enhanced my adaptability and enabled me to develop a versatile skill set applicable across diverse situations and environments. Iām excited by opportunities that combine learning with real-world impact where I can contribute to more equitable systems and keep growing as a researcher and advocate
