About me

I have always been curious. Whether questioning why the sky was blue or how humans came to be, I have always been interested in the ‘how’. Thanks to my parents, I grew up in a highly creative household that encouraged me to express myself and dream big. As I grew older, I realised those dreams centered around helping people and making a difference. This led me to study medical science, where I hope to work as a leading innovator in research and treatment. My lifelong connection with music is something I am passionate about combining with my love for technology and science. I hope to work on leading-edge treatments that draw on the foundations of music by understanding how it affects the brain and exploring its potential applications in future therapies. Ultimately, I want to help leave the world a better place.
The way this scholarship encourages collaborative learning and teamwork in research is something I am excited to contribute to. I believe the greatest impact comes when we work together, and that is exactly what this scholarship highlights.
