Criminology student seeking law-enforcement and public-safety roles through community engagement and conflict-resolution experience.
What I'm looking for
I’m a criminology student with hands-on experience in community engagement, customer service, and fast-paced environments. I bring strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills, with direct exposure to policing through Toronto Police Services youth initiatives.
I’ve worked as a PCX Team Member, preparing customer grocery orders with a focus on accuracy and organization. I communicate effectively with departments and drivers to keep service moving, and I stay effective during high-pressure, high-volume periods while maintaining both speed and quality.
Through YIPI Community Partnership & Engagement with Toronto Police Services, I built mentorships with local police and gained firsthand insight into law enforcement. I also strengthened community-police relations through youth engagement initiatives, applying teamwork and leadership to support meaningful outcomes.
I’m further prepared by volunteer roles that emphasize service and leadership—supporting food distribution for underserved communities and supervising and mentoring children in a day camp setting. I’m also certified in Worker Health and Safety Awareness and Emergency First Aid/CPR/AED, and I’m committed to opportunities aligned with public safety and law enforcement.
