Élissa completed a Bachelor’s of science degree in microbiology and immunology from the University of Montreal in 2022 and is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Nursing Sciences at the University of Sherbrooke. Throughout her studies, she completed various scientific research projects, including the Hydro-Quebec Science fair, where she won bronze for college level at the Montreal regional final. In 2016, she earned the Bronze ‘Lieutenant-governor du Québec’ prize for academic engagement and volunteering. Élissa has followed a science curriculum since high-school, which included enriched math and science, physics and chemistry as well as a science pre-university college diploma. In addition to her own academics, Élissa has worked as an intern and research assistant at the pragmatic health ethics research unit at the IRCM in Montreal where she contributed to work studying the experience of patients faced with rare diseases in the province of Quebec throughout their healthcare journeys, highlighted notably in the peer-reviewed bioethics journal, HEC Forum. She has also been tutoring for 9 years and is truly passionate about helping others learn. Her approach is one that goes above and beyond curriculum content and focuses on study methods, problem solving strategies and stress management. She believes that every student has some kind of difficulty that needs to be overcome in order to achieve their dreams, but that, ultimately, everyone can achieve them with a little help.
