I am currently a student in biomedical biology, I enjoy playing badminton and tennis, my favourite TV show is The Office, I love painting and winter is my favourite season! :)

I’ve always been interested in healthcare and more specifically being able to help people around me. Over the past years I’ve had to opportunity to volunteer at the hospital, and more recently with St John Ambulance! I’ve built a good understanding of what it means to help out my community and I’m proud to be a part of the Peer Wellness team!

It should be an easy process to reach out for help on campus. I understand the importance of mental health in everyday activity, and I’m always one email away for any student looking for help.

Hello! My name is Erin and I’m currently in my third year working towards a Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology. I am passionate about health and wellness and I find great satisfaction in making meaningful connections with others. My hobbies include camping, hiking, cycling and everything else in between!

As a peer wellness specialist, my main goal is to create and provide a welcoming environment for all students on and off campus, and I hope to become a familiar face with whom people feel comfortable. I seek to foster a sense of community where individuals feel supported and empowered to prioritize their mental and physical well-being.

My pronouns are: She/Her

I am a person who enjoys the company of humans, I love to talk and learn more about people and their culture. I am big on culture cause I feel like one's culture can define one a little. I love sports, it could be something that I know or learning something new cause as we know not all countries have all sports especially Hockey. In Uganda hockey does not exist and am yet to learn more about the sport. 

I would like to emphasize two values as I work with the Peer Wellness Program. One is Collaboration: I would like to stress the importance of working together to create a supportive environment where everyone can thrive. The other is Empathy: I would love to encourage compassion and understanding when it comes to others' experiences and challenges.
