Bio

With years of experience adapting to new academic and cultural environments, I understand the challenges, uncertainties and joys that come with transitioning into unfamiliar settings. These experiences have taught me the importance of curiosity and embracing diverse perspectives. The MMS program has pushed me to embrace discomfort and step outside my comfort zone, helping me find growth and transformation in unexpected places. As someone who thrives on exploring new perspectives, I believe every student has a story worth telling. As an MMS ambassador, I'm eager to share these transformative experiences with prospective students, help them envision how their unique stories will enrich our academic community, and ensure each prospective student feels valued and heard throughout their admissions journey.
