I am a bilingual (English and French), experienced Registered Practical Nurse with an honors degree in psychology. Currently working in the plastic surgery/medical spa industry and a center for mental health and addictions.
I also have volunteer experience working in community outreach centers, helping raise awareness about mental illness, AIDS, and homelessness. Furthermore, I volunteer for two non-profit organizations. One is devoted to establishing health outposts in rural parts of Nicaragua. The other involves working with homeless youth where I give addiction, mental health, and nursing-based lectures at the University of Toronto.
I have used these lectures at Addiction Canada to teach health seminars to clients. I recently won a full tuition and living expense PhD scholarship to study clinical psychology at Flinders University. I am also looking forward to expanding my undergraduate research by specializing in Body Dysmorphic Disorder.
