Overview
About Me
My favorite hobbies are rock climbing, slacklining, and listening to music. In my undergraduate studies I was Co-president of the Visual Arts Club, I worked for the Student Experience on Campus and was an active member of the our Outdoors Club as well as our Rock Climbing Club.
I participated in an study abroad program travelling from CarletonU in Ottawa to the University of Edinburgh during my third year of Architectural History and Industrial Design. Being on exchange enabled me to be a great ambassador for my University and country, always remembering to show respect for the prospective localities and people I come across. Each place I visit I set a goal for myself to leave it the way it was when I arrived and I will continue to do so in the homes I am visiting.
