About Maria Leis
I am a Director of Women in Medicine, the Women’s Health Education Initiative, and Medical Students for Choice. I am interested in global gender disparities; my current research examines the impact of gender-based violence against female sex workers in Nairobi, Kenya on HIV prevention behaviours and mental health outcomes. I am part of FMWC’s Gender-Based and Family Violence Committee, and sit on the Board of Directors as the National Student Representative.

About the Jr. VP Finance
My role is to consult the class regularly to determine class opinions and concerns regarding issues relevant to the class. Myself and Chris represent the interests of the 2T2 class during interactions with the Medical Society, faculty, administration, and any other groups or organizations. Further, we oversee the 2T2 class council by facilitating relationships between elected students and faculty with the class, and supporting them in their endeavours when possible. We meet regularly with both students and faculty to ensure the interests of the 2T2 class are best represented, and to be the voice of our class in faculty-level decision making when required.
