Year and program: Fourth-year, Psychology Honours
Where is home for you? Surrey, BC
What three adjectives best describe you?
Organized, ambitious, and sincere
What extracurricular activities have you been involved with (UBC related or not)?
I served as a co-director for MURC 2025 and volunteer with AMS Peer Support. I also work as a research assistant in a couple of psychology labs and part-time as a Youth Education Program Leader with the YWCA, where I help facilitate workshops on health equity and social issues for youth.
What is your best study strategy/tip?
At the start of each term, I create a detailed schedule that includes all major deadlines and exams. This helps me stay on track and avoid last-minute stress. I also recommend breaking large tasks into smaller steps and using time-blocking.
If you could travel back in time to your first year at UBC, what is one thing you would do differently?
I would let myself enjoy the first-year experience more instead of constantly worrying about academics. I’d also try to get involved in more clubs and student events early on because it’s such a great way to meet people and feel more connected to campus life.
