Bio

I am a fourth-year student at Western University with a vast interest in the domain of finance, real-estate and sales. My motivation stems from a desire for self-improvement. I am always seeking opportunities that can stimulate me intellectually and intrapersonally. My pastimes include fitness, social media, reading self-help books, and fashion.
