About Me
Psychology Student | Pre-Medical Track
I'm a B.A. Psychology Student at The University of Ottawa on the pre-med track, with a strong interest in neuroscience. I chose psychology as a degree, because I strongly believe the aforementioned goes hand in hand with neuroscience when it comes to understanding humans, and more specifically, the brain and behavioral patterns.
My interest in human anatomy, the brain, and neurosurgery started before I even graduated high school. I've had the opportunity to travel the world in my childhood & teenage years, this gave me a glimpse into different cultures and how human behavior varied, and sometimes even remained the same across the globe.
I've been eager to get experience through research & volunteering to allow me to form a better understanding of the field. I'm interested in growing my knowledge and skills, with the goal of one day being able to contribute to advancements as others have before me.
