Background

Amin grew up in Fort McMurray, Alberta. He moved to Edmonton to attend the University of Alberta, where he completed his Bachelor of Commerce in Accounting. During his undergraduate degree, Amin worked with the City of Edmonton as a Property Tax Agent, assisting property owners with their property tax inquiries. He later returned to the City of Edmonton during law school, where he helped redevelop the Business Licence Bylaw and support its implementation.

Amin took part in various extracurricular activities during law school, including volunteering with the Student Legal Services in their Civil Law and Human Rights Project and aiding members in the community at the Alberta Human Rights Commission and through alternative dispute resolutions. In his final year of studies, he helped establish the Muslim Law Student Association and worked with other student groups to foster a more inclusive law school environment. Amin also helped organize the Alberta Youth Parliament: UofA Chapter, where students met in a three-day conference to raise awareness on important societal issues and develop students’ debate, leadership, and public speaking skills.

Throughout his university career, Amin has been passionate about making a difference by volunteering with fundraisers. He put together the Gaming for Charity Association, where admission from e-sport tournaments was used to raise funds for local charities, including the ABC Head Start Society. Amin was also an active member of the Student’s ALS Association, where he helped facilitate chocolate fundraisers and silent auctions while spreading ALS awareness.
