 My name is Anne-Sophie and I'm 22 years old. I'm from Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu and I've been studying Paralegal Technology at College Ahuntsic in Montreal for 3 years now. This program is made for those who want to work in the law field. A lot of students take these courses to then get into university in Law. In my case, it's to become a paralegal technician and work in a courthouse or for a notary, preferably. I used to be in Social Sciences, since my goal was to get into Psychology in university, but I changed my mind because of a lack of motivation. I've always had an interest in human rights and justice, and I've always liked to do writing projects and work on their layout. I'm kind of perfectionnist and this field brings me satisfaction and purpose, on a certain level.
