If there's something that I want, I will make it happen. Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Here is a bit about myself! ⬇️ I have graduated from the Accounting - Professional Master's Diploma (PMDip) program at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) - Ted Rogers School of Management (TRSM), graduated from the Accounting Co-op Program with a double minor in Economics and Professional Communications with Distinction, and graduated from the TRSM - Top 200 Program where I was given the opportunity to become an emerging leader that focuses on my professional, academic, and personal development. I am a passionate and active learner who is always diversifying my experiences and constantly evolving to become the best version of myself. I would always put my career upfront and achieve the best of the best academically and professionally. I have previously worked at numerous firms including: CRA, Manulife, KPMG and PwC. I am currently pursuing my MBA at TMU - TRSM as well as the CPA (Chartered Professional Accountant) designation while taking on various opportunities that advances my career and professional development. Over the span of 5 years of my undergraduate journey, I have taken part of 10 different student groups, which allowed me to explore various opportunities and experiences. I started to reflect on all of my past student leadership experiences that I've taken part of at TMU & TRSM. Overall, it has been a remarkable journey and I am forever grateful for all the experiences throughout my University experience. With that coming to an end, I plan on returning to campus and be part of panel discussions, networking opportunities, and conferences as an industry professional, and I am very excited to see what the future holds for me. During my time at TMU, I gained numerous soft skills and valuable experiences outside of a lecture / classroom. Those experiences got me to where I am today and I have always cherish them for the rest of my life. During my free time, I like to write short-stories via JLMC Productions, live-stream on Twitch, play video games, do photography, and go to the gym. Time is always valuable and I cherish every moment in my life, and every day is something that I look forward to.
