I’m Patricia Rae Villa and I am currently a third year science
student in the Cognitive Systems psychology stream. As a volunteer at the IDEA lab, I am looking forward to learning more about dementia within a research environment, as well as exploring technologies that will aid people with dementia. I have previously worked at a senior’s home, supporting seniors in wellness programs and assisting them in everyday life. Through the IDEA lab, I would love to continue helping seniors manage the effects of dementia and aging. In my free time, I enjoy sketching, crocheting and trying new cafes and restaurants with my friends.
