How did you go about taking your opportunities?
At first I tried too much all at once; I had to learn to focus. I found it crucial to begin with the end in mind, to think what you wanted out of each opportunity.
Do you have any advice to other students wanting to make the most of their time at university?
Choose carefully what to get involved in, imagine yourself graduating; ask yourself, by then, where do I want to be?
What impact have your experiences at university had on you?
My university experiences have internationalised me, I really feel like a global citizen. My horizons are much broader, my prospects have totally changed!
Of what achievements are you most proud?
I am most proud of being elected president by the students around me.
