Humam Aziz
Coach
Introduction:
Hello! My name is Humam. I’m a recent graduate of McGill’s business school, and I am now a
first-year medical student at UBC. I love debating because it constantly exposes me to new and
unconventional ideas while training me to think critically and rationally. I hope that students
leave my classes with a greater passion for learning and the confidence to excel wherever they
go.
