Biography
Born and raised in Toronto, I had a very lonely and tough childhood. Even though I was privileged to have both of my parents and two older brothers, I wasn't exactly treated so well. I don't intend to delve into my childhood experiences here though.

I left the city to study accounting at the University of Waterloo under the interests of my family and peers. I found the content stale and boring, but that wasn't the problem -- nearly everyone in the program seemed to pursue material wealth.

Switching out wasn't easy, and others would not take it well. My family felt that this program was the key to a happy future as an accountant (which I found out later that it wasn't). Other students thought I was intelligent and would definitely not understand. I didn't like the idea of getting everyone roused up because of me, but even more importantly -- I didn't like the idea of being someone I'm not. I'm not the kind of person to do work just because it's work, I want something more.

To this day, I am majoring in psychology. I've always been intrigued with understanding human behaviour, nature, and cognition. You might think that now I'm studying something I love, I am doing excellent in my classes? Unfortunately, I have a bad case of anxiety. For example, when doing statistics work for 3 hours at a time, I get mild panic attacks. I think it's safe to say that I hate exam season.

Since I'm in a co-op program, it's not all studying for me! Luckily, I alternate 4-month study- and 4-month work terms. I've worked in business (project management) and communications roles at small and big organizations. I have very strong opinions for the organizations I've worked with. For my next work term, I am working on a start-up project with my boyfriend. I won't be paid (which frightens my family), but this is something I want to do for myself.

In my extracurricular experiences and deep inside me, I've always had a tendency to want to help others. Even if they betray or hurt me, I keep forgiving them. I'm always there for my friends, but I've learned that they won't always be there for me. I don't trust people, but I keep trying to trust them. I found out that I don't actually care about people, but I care about the person.
