I believe that by serving as a representative, I can work collaboratively with students, faculty and administration to ensure everyone’s voice is heard, drive meaningful improvements and enhance the overall university experience for current and future students.

What campus are you from and what's your favourite thing about this campus?

I’m proud to call the University of South Australia’s Mawson Lakes campus my home! What I love most about it is the dynamic blend of innovation and community. From cutting edge labs and high-tech facilities that fuel creativity to the scenic lake views perfect for a study break, it’s a place where inspiration and collaboration thrive. It’s more than just a campus. It’s a place where big ideas are born, lifelong connections are made and every day offers a chance to learn, connect and grow.

What's your best piece of advice for your fellow students?

My best piece of advice for fellow students is to stay curious and be fearless in seeking opportunities. Whether it’s joining a club, reaching out for help or taking on new challenges, every step outside your comfort zone is a chance to learn and grow. Remember, university is as much about the connections you make and the experiences you gain as it is about academics. Embrace every moment, support each other and never hesitate to speak up for what you believe in, you have the power to make a difference!

What instantly puts you in a good mood?

Music instantly puts me in a good mood! Whether it’s an upbeat song that gets me moving or a soothing melody that helps me relax the right tunes have a magical way of lifting my spirits and shifting my energy. It’s amazing how music can transform any moment into something brighter and more joyful!

If you could have dinner with anyone - dead or alive - who would it be and why?

If I could have dinner with anyone, it would undoubtedly be my grandmother. Her presence has always felt like a warm hug for the soul and every moment spent with her is filled with love, laughter and stories that carry the depth of her experiences. I’d cherish hearing her wisdom, feeling her gentle touch and sharing our favourite dishes together. It’s the simple, heartfelt moments with her that mean the world where time slows down and every word and smile becomes a precious memory. That’s the kind of love only a grandmother can bring and it fills my heart just thinking about it.

If money was no object, what would you do with your life?

If money was no object, I would dedicate my life to creating opportunities and making a positive impact in underserved communities around the world. I’d focus on building and supporting initiatives in education, women’s empowerment and sustainable development, opening doors for people to achieve their full potential and break cycles of poverty. I’d also invest time in traveling to learn about different cultures, experiences and ways of life using that knowledge to foster global understanding and compassion. Ultimately, it would be about making a meaningful difference and spreading hope wherever possible.
