The Acclaim Health Home Exercise Program is designed to assist and instill confidence and independence of seniors that have trouble with physical disabilities and dementia.

The Halton Multicultural Center aims to provide free services to those who are immigrating as new Canadians or refugees.

The Western University Orientation Program is designed to work with first-year university students in residence communities. each volunteer lives-in and leads a community of 30 to 50 students year-round.

One extracurricular I enjoy is training as a strength athlete in the sport of powerlifting. Powerlifting is a competitive sport where the athletes try to test their strength, technique, and mentality in three lifts: the squat, bench, and deadlift. Below is a table showing the major muscles involved in each lift. I collaborate with Team Edgley to help achieve our goals through advice, group training, and exercise planning. I have recently competed at the 2021 Ontario Powerlifting Championship and proud to have come so far in my athletic career.
