Expertise
Finishing off my second year of Uni, I have been through it all. High school wasn't very long ago and it had a huge impact on my life- for the better, definitely. I can answer anything from relationship problems to self image issues. I have been to many schools and I know how hard it is to make friends and want nothing more than to be accepted. I've learned patience and acceptance and I just want to help you guys out in any way I can =) Ask away!
Experience
I have been a camp counselor several times in the past. Whenever some of the kids I was looking after had a problem they came to me to help work it out.
Organizations
Not really religious, but I help out the community church down the road by playing saxophone and piano for them whenever they put on a production. Montreal Chess Association, College Basketball Team.
Education/Credentials
High School Diploma, Various Language and History Awards, Currently working on a Bachelor's Degree.
Awards and Honors
I'm an Honor Role student and I received the top academic award for my grade in my senior year (the Dux award).
