Biographie

I am a passionate advocate for social entrepreneurship and education, with a strong commitment to empowering young minds. As a Master's student in Political Science at the University of Ottawa and a graduate of New York University with a background in economics and social entrepreneurship, I bring a unique blend of academic knowledge and practical experience. Last year, I had the privilege of facilitating a mini-course on social entrepreneurship, where I guided high school students through hands-on projects, market analysis, and strategic planning. I thrive in creating engaging, inclusive learning environments that inspire students to think critically and creatively about societal challenges. I am eager to bring this passion and expertise to the mini-course facilitation program.
