About me
Having only visited Asia once in my lifetime, I am eager to gain regional experience on a global scale through Westpac. I am currently studying dual undergraduate degrees in Commerce and Science, majoring in Accounting and Biomedical Science, at the University of Queensland. I am excited about the prospect of pursuing a career that demands the very best of me in medicine when I am a bit older. I have a passion for tropical and rural health, and I believe Australia’s growing relationship with the Indo-Pacific is an area that presents enormous opportunity. Outside of the classroom, I am an outgoing individual who strikes up conversations and loves spending time with family and friends. I currently fill my weekends with playing tennis, coaching cricket, and the occasional pickleball match with my social circle. I have fun exploring different cafes in my local area too. Being an identical twin, my brother has always been the source of my inspiration—our competition growing up constantly pushed me to improve, and I feel as if we have been playing one big game of ‘one-up’ for the past twenty years!
"Through the regional experience, new networks and different perspectives I will gain in Singapore, I will advance my understanding in the fields of commerce and health. This will equip me with the necessary skills and leadership qualities I will need to grow Australia’s relationship with the Indopacific in the future, as well as our own medical outreach programs in less-economically developed and tropical communities. I am so excited about building connections in this life-long network."
