Tell us about your educational journey so far
I recently graduated from Arden University with a degree in Business Management. I began my studies in 2022 and completed them in December 2025, balancing independent learning with real world responsibilities. Studying in a flexible, mostly online environment strengthened my self discipline, time management, and problem solving skills. Throughout my degree, I developed strong abilities in communication, leadership, and organisation, learning how to turn ideas into practical outcomes. My education has not only prepared me academically but has also helped me grow personally, giving me confidence to step into leadership roles and advocate effectively for others.
What inspired you to run for this role?
I am inspired by advocacy and the need to give a voice to students who feel unheard or overlooked. I have seen how easily students can feel disconnected, especially in online learning environments, and I want to help bridge that gap. This role aligns closely with my long-term goal of becoming a lawyer, as it allows me to represent others, listen to their concerns, and push for fair and meaningful change.
How will you make sure all voices are heard and represented?
I will make sure student voices are heard by creating open and accessible communication channels such as surveys, forums, and regular check-ins. I believe listening is just as important as speaking. I will actively gather feedback, represent concerns honestly, and follow up with students so they feel valued, included, and confident that their voices are making a real impact.
What's the best piece of advice you've every received as a student?
The best advice I’ve received is to take small, consistent steps that lead to greater results rather than trying to do everything at once. Studying for just 30 minutes each day to revise and review prevents work from piling up and reduces stress. If something isn’t clear early on such as critical writing, referencing, effective reading, or time management it’s important to ask for the right support straight away. Tackling challenges early helps you build those skills properly and prevents gaps in understanding from carrying through the rest of your studies.
What's a hobby or interest you have that might surprise people?
A hobby that genuinely surprises people is how much I enjoy cleaning and keeping my space organised. It’s not something people usually expect, but having a clean and structured environment helps me think clearly, stay focused, and feel comfortable. Cleaning allows me to reset mentally, reduce stress, and create a positive space where I can work productively and stay motivated.
If you have a completely free day, how would you spend it?
I would spend the day at a spa, fully disconnecting from responsibilities and focusing on rest and wellbeing. Taking time to recharge allows me to return refreshed, motivated, and better equipped to support others and perform at my best.
