Ava Cervas
(She/Her)
Co-Director of Speak Your Mind

Ava is a current first-year student completing her Bachelor of Arts with a major in Psychology at UBC. She joined the Free Your Mind team to kickstart her career in the mental healthcare field, and to join a platform where she could share her knowledge and experiences with the intention to inspire others. Besides psychology, Ava’s academic passions have always centered around writing. When she’s not typing away on her computer, you can find her analyzing movies, trying fun food spots, and discovering new music. In her free time, Ava also practices her love for crochet and crafting through the small business she runs with her sister, and as an executive for her university’s Knit & Sew club!
