Why I chose Western
I chose Western for its strong business opportunities, campus culture, and the chance to get involved beyond academics.

My favourite place in London
My favourite place in London is Angelo's because they have amazing gelatos and baked goods.
Highlights from my Western experience
Working on my startup, getting involved with entrepreneurship at Western, volunteering with Western Foot Patrol and Western International, and meeting people from different countries and backgrounds and making new friends have been some of my biggest highlights.
A fun fact about me
A fun fact about me is that I'm working on building a startup for Western's students.
My advice for new students or students considering going abroad
My advice for new students or students considering going abroad would be to be open to meeting new people and trying things outside your comfort zone. Get involved early, experience new things, and enjoy every moment to the fullest.
