I am also currently interning at PepsiCo as part of their in-house team. My role as VP Education is to ensure the well-being of all students and ensure they are getting the most out of their degree. The main events in my portfolio include First Year Mentoring, the Women in Law Luncheon and Inspire Evening. It is my aim to have students graduate from UOW as more well-rounded and inspired individuals than when they began their degree. My key focuses for this upcoming year are promoting mental health and diversity. I want all students to feel valued, cared for and seen by the University. It is only when everyone feels valued that we really shine! I am very excited for this upcoming year and hope to bring you some exciting new initiatives!
