KATRINA HASS
Artist. Storyteller. Communicator.
Hi there! My name is Katrina and art has always been a big part of my life. I love using art as a medium to promote an understanding of the sciences.
I hold a Master of Science in Biomedical Communications (MScBMC) at the University of Toronto – one of four accredited programs in North America that teaches medical illustration. Prior to that, I earned my BSc (Hons) in Health Sciences at McMaster University. During my undergraduate years, I actively pursued projects that provided opportunities to integrate my artistic passion.
I grew up in a small mining town called Kirkland Lake in Northern Ontario. I enjoy include hiking, camping, watching movie commentaries, and trying out new bubble-tea flavours.
Send me a message on LinkedIn if you'd like to chat or collaborate. I'm always happy to support others and I love hearing different stories!
Toronto, Canada
