Background

Passionate and dedicated individual currently pursuing a Master of Business degree, with a strong academic foundation in Economics, having completed a Bachelor’s degree in the field, I’m enthusiastic about representing graduate students and advocating for their needs and concerns evident through my active involvement in volunteering initiatives. For the past year, I have actively engaged with the Monash Graduate Association as a volunteer and built strong personal relationships with graduate students, gaining valuable insights into their experiences, challenges, and aspirations.

Currently, I hold a position in Academic Operations at Monash College, where I play a pivotal role in supporting international students in their transition to life in Melbourne. Recognizing the significance of a smooth settlement process, I work diligently to ensure that international students receive the necessary assistance, guidance, and resources to thrive in their academic and personal endeavors. Motivated by my experiences at Monash College, I aspire to extend the same level of support to graduate students now.

My desire is to contribute to the welfare and success of this specific student population is driven by the belief that graduate students face unique challenges and deserve dedicated representation. I seek to leverage my academic and professional experience to empower graduate students and address their concerns at the highest levels.

Personal Interests

I have a diverse range of personal interests that keep me engaged and entertained. One of my greatest passions is sports, particularly football and baseball. I love the adrenaline rush that comes with watching intense matches and cheering for my favorite teams. The strategy, athleticism, and teamwork displayed on the field never fail to captivate me. In addition to sports, I have a deep fascination with horror movies. The thrill of being scared and the suspenseful plots are incredibly exciting to me. I also find solace and beauty in opera music. The powerful vocals, intricate melodies, and emotional storytelling create a truly captivating experience.

Lastly, I have a keen interest in politics. Staying informed about current events, understanding different political ideologies, and participating in discussions about important issues are all important to me. I believe in the power of democracy and the impact that politics has on shaping society. Engaging in political discourse allows me to broaden my perspective and contribute to meaningful conversations about the future.
