Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, as a child, Bianca experienced many trials and tribulations. Raised in a single parent household in one of the most poverty stricken neighbourhoods of Toronto in the Jane & Finch community, Bianca overcame many obstacles that stood her way.

Against all odds, through hard work and dedication, she has become an integral part of one of the biggest corporations in Canada as she currently works for Scotia bank. She will be attending Seneca College in January of 2012 where she will be studying Business Administration – Human Resources.

She enjoys educating her clients on how to be financially prepared and finds meaning in helping students such as herself. Being passionate about the work she does, has won her an award, “Best of the Best”, for her outstanding performance in 2010. She is actively involved with United Way by raising awareness for those who want change in their living conditions.

In addition, she has also raised awareness for The Gordie & Colleen Howe Fund for Alzheimer’s. Bringing awareness to Alzheimer’s touches Bianca on a personal level based on personal experiences. In addition, Bianca loves spending time with her loved ones and finds fulfillment in helping people.

She strongly believes in people for change, and if given the opportunity, she would be a contributing factor for that. She loves dancing, baking and traveling. She is inspired by the motto, “Be the change you wish to see in the world”.
