About Me

Hi, I’m Aaisha Hassan—an aspiring law student with a passion for leadership, advocacy, and community engagement. I’ve had the privilege of holding key roles, including President of the Youth Council for MPP Stephen Crawford, Student Senator, and Co-Founder of TEDx GWSS.

With over 300 hours of volunteer experience, I’m dedicated to making a difference through initiatives that promote mental health, animal rights, and student support. I’m currently pursuing exciting opportunities in law, working with Professor Fernandez on the Animal Law Rights Digest (Canada Edition) and gaining hands-on experience through my co-op placement at the Oakville Mayor’s Office.

Driven by purpose and fueled by curiosity, I aim to pursue law at the University of Toronto to continue advocating for positive change and justice in my community and beyond.
