About me
I am currently in my second year studying a double degree in Law and International Relations, minoring in Japanese. Having been lucky enough to grow up living between Singapore, Kuwait, Japan, and Australia, that experience has driven my fascination with the nature of international diplomacy and cross-cultural communication. It is my dream to live and work overseas representing Australia and deepening our diplomatic ties in the Asia-Pacific. I also have a passion for refugee issues, working on the executive of the ANU Refugee Action Campaign for 2025. Outside of university, I’m keen on running, cycling, and playing tennis with friends. During my semester in Japan, I’m excited to make some lifelong connections and polish my Japanese, while travelling in order to experience the natural beauty of the country.
"The Westpac Scholarship has given me access to the adventure of a lifetime. During my exchange I hope to cultivate a greater depth of knowledge and expand my own capabilities in fostering cultural, linguistic, and political relations between Japan and Australia. We cannot choose to be unaffected by international politics, and the opportunity to gain diplomatic insights in an Asian context to bring back to Australia will be invaluable."
