Ava is a reflective and introspective first-year Arts student at the University of Waterloo. Growing up in a small town where excitement was rare, she finds herself often pondering the deeper meanings of everyday life. With a passion for philosophy and creative writing, Ava writes poetry in her spare time, using observations of the world around her, like the sound of sirens, to inspire her work. She seeks to capture the profound in the mundane, hoping to evoke a sense of awareness and empathy in others.
