Why I chose Western

I wanted the opportunity to meet and interact with people from diverse backgrounds and learn from their experiences and the exposure they gained from various walks of life

My favourite place on campus

Western fields because I love playing outdoor sports and always want to play intermurals.

My favourite place in London

Dundas Street, because there's always something happening there.

Highlights from my Western experience

OWeek – it really sets the tone and makes it easier to settle in and adjust to the new environment

A fun fact about me

I took ballet classes until I was 12.

My advice for new students or students considering going abroad

Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. The more you seek things out, the more opportunities you will find
