Stream of study: Co-op
Pronouns: She/Her
Career goal: My ultimate goal is to merge biotechnology with business. I’m focusing on areas in M&A, and consulting in the biotech/biomed industry. I’m excited to work in roles that could help life sciences companies financially and help contribute to their long-term success.
How I get involved: I’ve been getting involved by becoming an ambassador for the Biotechnology/CPA program and being a Young Tax Professionals member. Hopefully I can support aspiring biotech/CPAs by sharing my experiences.
Why I love my program
I love my program because it’s unique and challenging. It’s definitely given me a window into two very different industries. The best part is the co-op. Not only is it a break from school, but I have the opportunity to try four entirely different roles.
Why University of Waterloo?
I chose the University of Waterloo because of its co-op program and the science-business programs. The community is also incredible, and I’ve had the chance to meet really smart amazing people.
