Co-President 

Angela Tohme
Honours Bachelors of Science in Psychology 

I joined UOMSC at the very beginning of my undergraduate studies because I wanted to be a part of team that works towards not only advocating for a disease that affects more students than we think, but also a team that works together to spread awareness while also contributing to research.

VP of Research

Kayleigh Canlas​

Master of Science - Human Kinetics

I chose to be involved in UOMSC because I’m deeply passionate about multiple sclerosis (MS) and raising awareness about the disease. MS often affects people invisibly, and many don’t realize the challenges it brings. I am especially driven to contribute to life-changing research for individuals with advanced stages of MS, as this group is often overlooked, and effective treatments are limited.

Fun fact: I'm an identical twin! ​
