Hello, my name is Nifemi! I am an Honours Life Sciences student at McMaster University. My goal is to pursue healthcare and medicine, and I am driven by the gaps that are present in healthcare equity and advocacy. Global issues such as the lack of education in racialized communities or the missing representation of Sickle Cell education in Western society are issues that I wish to positively contribute to. My skills include data analysis, qualitative and quantitative reviews, wet lab experiments, and more. I would love to grow my capabilities through new opportunities, internships, and hands-on experiences. In my free time my hobbies include sports, fashion, and volunteering in the community.
