About Yianna:

Yianna is currently going into her fifth and final year of her undergrad at the University of Toronto Scarborough Campus. After she completes her undergrad, Yianna hopes to continue her studies and pursue a degree in teaching in hopes of becoming a successful high school or elementary school teacher. Yianna enjoys traveling to places with tropical climates with her family, and working. As well as attending social gatherings with her friends during her spare time. Yianna wanted to be apart of the Greek Students’ Association upon hearing of it during her final year of high school through family members and friends. During her first year at UTSC she was offered an executive position on the council and has been apart of it ever since. She never thought she would become president, but she managed to do so in her final year. Through the  Greek Students’ Association, Yianna has been able to build new friendships with her fellow Greek peers at both the Scarborough and downtown campus. The  Greek Students’ Association has also allowed her to network with other unions, building upon her professional background. Her experiences within the Greek Students’ Association has allowed her to become the person she is today.
