Meet Alex, a compassionate and resourceful first-year student in Environmental Studies at the University of Waterloo. Known for their late-night study sessions, Alex also has a knack for animal rescue, often stepping in to help pets in need, especially small creatures like hamsters. With a deep love for all living things, they believe in building community through kindness, proving that even in the midst of chaotic finals, there's always time to lend a helping hand (or a hamster carrier).
