2022 Loran Scholar
Sir John A Macdonald Secondary School (Waterloo)
Atlas is pursuing a B.Sc. in cognitive science at McGill University. Committed to the integration of arts and sciences in all they do, they serve as musical director for on-campus a cappella ensemble Effusion and volunteer as a piano teacher for elementary school students from low-income families, while also embracing their more technologically inclined side with former work as a software developer with Agora Board Games. Atlas spent their first Loran summer as a public policy advisor and AI impact researcher at Imagine Canada, and their second in San Diego formatting a toolkit of resources for intentional game facilitation in educational spaces. Atlas volunteers on the board of TBG Canada, a non-profit dedicated to the use of tabletop games for social impact and therapeutic treatment.
