#Repost @youth_ottawa with @repostapp ・・・ @emilyprieur ⠀ “Write injuries in dust, benefits in marble”, a quote by Benjamin Franklin is a quote that I have lived by since childhood. Despite being told by many professionals I would never excel beyond elementary school I sought those who allowed me to get the education I needed to reach my goals. Now I am the first student in Ontario to have graduated with 3 high school diplomas with concentration in fine arts, business and science as well as several awards. With this experience, creating an organization at the University of Ottawa along with a colleague seemed only obvious. I am proud to be the co-president of DREAM uOttawa because it has touched the lives with many children autism but also has gotten University students involved in the conversation that despite any short comings, the possibilities for any student, are endless. Recently I have been nominated to be on the board of administration at my school, pairing my voice with my philanthropic and research efforts utside of school, I hope to change the lives of those who are of aboriginal decent and those with disabilities.⠀ ⠀ #ottyouthaccomplishment⠀ ...⠀ ⠀ Submit your profile today at www.youthottawa.ca⠀ ⠀ #ottyouth2017 #celebrateyouth #FREEprizes #ottyouth #ottcity #YOW #uottawa #ottawa #ottawa2017 #ottyouthvoices #youthofottawa #humansofottawa⠀
