Leo Benoliel

Summary
I'm a dedicated student at Western University pursuing an Honours specialization degree in Media, Information, and Technoculture. Beyond the classroom, I've ventured into various roles that have allowed me to grow both personally and professionally. These experiences have not only honed my interpersonal and communication skills but have also taught me the importance of persistence and empathy in achieving goals. What truly drives me is music and connecting with people. Building genuine relationships and understanding their unique stories is something I find incredibly rewarding. My personal passion is music and working within the music industry is a lifelong dream. Combining my appreciation for storytelling and a foundation in music education has allowed me to develop a growing portfolio of songs, while also building skills in music production and distribution. Music has a unique way of bringing people together, and I'm always excited to explore new sounds and connect with fellow music lovers.
