Qumoia Smith

I am a psychology student at The University of Toronto with a strong interest in psychology, mental health, and overall well-being. I first became involved with Health & Happiness: Counselling and Wellness through my high school co-op placement, where I had the opportunity to learn more about the health and wellness field, and the team that makes the clinic such a welcoming place.

I have always been curious about how people behave, think, and interpret the world around them, which continues to influence my academic interests.

Outside of school and work, I enjoy reading, exploring different languages, and learning about linguistics and the ways language connects people and cultures. I value personal growth and challenging myself to explore new interests while stepping outside my comfort zone. I’m excited to continue developing my knowledge of psychology and neuroscience while gaining new experiences in the health and wellness field.
