Favourite Quote: "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go with others." - African proverb
Hi, I'm Michelle and I am currently in the Concurrent Education program at York, majoring in Children Studies to pursue my dream of becoming a teacher. My family and friends mean everything to me. I've seen Toy Story 3 at least 15 times and have cried every single time I've watched it (it's my favourite movie aha). After reading "Eating Animals" by Jonathan Safran Foer, I can honestly say that this is the one book that has changed my life. I have been a pescetarian for 8 months now and have recently been trying to transition into vegetarianism. I love winter and cannot stand the heat! Lastly, I love listening to music and it's one of my favourite leisure activities.

Dr. Seuss.
I am a fairly optimistic person and enjoy helping people. I would love to travel around the world one day and explore. Random thing about me; I am not afraid of heights but terrified of spiders! Lastly, I am excited to be on the exec team and I look forward to work with everyone!

I am a friendly guy that likes to get along with everyone. Furthermore, my goal as a volunteer/mentorship coordinator is to help other people to succeed within Children's Studies program. Helping other people to achieve their potential is a rewarding experience as my desire is to become an elementary schoolteacher. I am looking forward to meet everyone within this program.

Hi Everyone! My name is Tracy and I live in Mississauga with my lovely hubby, two boys and two black labs. Born & raised in Ireland, I am really well travelled and have worked and lived in many European cities & the Middle East. My work background is varied but my most recent career choice was in the field of Early Childhood Education. My greatest joy is spending time with my awesome family and friends, swimming, marathon running, and hiking. I have enjoyed 5 fantastic years as a Beaver Scout leader with Scouting Ireland and Scouts Canada and I am also the President and Co-founder of Children’s Voices See Hear Speak, a York-wide children’s advocacy group. I look forward to meeting you!
