Nicholas Hamzea
Nicholas Hamzea is a Grade 12 International Baccalaureate student at Bayview Secondary School. With his strong passion for equity, mental health, and student advocacy, he has served on his school’s student council and has worked closely with the York Region Presidents Council for the past 2 years, among other organizations and initiatives. Being someone who strongly pursues his passions, Nicholas is also heavily involved both within his school as well as throughout the community. In school, he is part of the HOSA Chapter, a club dedicated to the field of medicine, as well as the prefect organization. Outside of school, he is heavily involved with his taekwondo academy, where he has been training for 11 years, and at the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, where he works with kids of all ages and abilities. Experiences such as these have opened his eyes to the importance of ensuring that every single person’s voice is heard and as a student trustee, he hopes to improve that through working closely with the students of York Region and with various organizations such as the York Region President’s Council and the Ontario Student Trustee’s Association.
