I am deeply thankful to pursue my academic journey at McGill University, renowned for its excellence in psychology. What truly distinguishes this experience for me is the sense of belonging I have found. I am profoundly grateful to my supervisor, Dr. Richard Koestner, and the Psychology Department for their unwavering support throughout my academic pursuits. Their guidance has been instrumental in shaping my trajectory toward a PhD in Clinical Psychology. Alongside this support, I have been fortunate to cultivate meaningful relationships that have enriched my personal growth and made a lasting impact on my journey at McGill.

During my time here, I have had the privilege of learning from a diverse range of experts in the field and gaining invaluable hands-on experience in clinical settings under the mentorship of exceptional healthcare professionals. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the complexities of what it means to be human. Furthermore, my engagement with local organizations has allowed me to contribute to purposeful initiatives focused on the well-being of our communities. Collaborating with inspirational beings and participating in community-driven projects has been incredibly fulfilling, reinforcing my belief in the importance of giving back and supporting others.

As I continue on my path, I remain dedicated to learning, collaboration, and service, with a commitment to fostering a more supportive environment for people from all walks of life.
