About Sophia:
Sophia is a fourth-year Life Science student at the University of Toronto, specializing in Health and Disease and minoring in Immunology. Her career goal is to go to Medical school and become a doctor. Sophia is half Polish and half Greek and is extremely proud of her heritage. Sophia is well-traveled and has lived in several countries which has broadened her experiences and given her a well-rounded perspective. She is currently the President of the Polish Students’ Association and has served the Greek Students’ Association since her third year. Sophia’s grandparents immigrated to Canada from Greece in the 50s and opened two restaurants and a nightclub in Toronto. This year, Sophia is extremely grateful to serve as VP External and is looking forward to reconnecting with the Greek community in Toronto and participate in Greek Culture at UofT.
