| My name is Allison Guthrie, I am 17 years old, and I attend École Secondaire Notre Dame High School in Red Deer, Alberta. This is my first time attending the CWSF! This fall, I will be attending the University of Calgary, where I plan to focus in genetics, plant biology, biochemistry, and biotechnology. Eventually, I plan to begin my career as a biologist, studying these areas and applying that knowledge towards finding solutions for human and environmental problems. I got the idea for this project from an offhand comment my teacher made, which grew in my head until I decided to set it in action. I feel that understanding psychological biases is extremely important, as it allows us to understand our own actions and the actions of others, and thus be better able to interact with others in empathetic, meaningful ways. In my free time, I enjoy reading, making art, and singing with the Ihana Youth Choir. |
