About me

Growing up in the highly multicultural area of Sydney, Asian languages and cultures have been fundamental in shaping my life and career. I started with one foreign language and culture when I was young, and since then, this passion has grown exponentially. Combined with my interest in contributing to healthy communities, I am looking forward to going overseas with a Bachelor of Social Work to learn further about community organizations and mental health service provision, and bringing this knowledge back here to assist Australia's rapidly growing multicultural population once I graduate. In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering, reading, and studying.
"Having genuine 'on the ground' understanding of social services in other countries will provide me the knowledge and cultural skills required to successfully assist migrants and refugees live full lives in Australia."
