Darwin offers unique lifestyles – it is the Top End where the urban meets the outback, and in my opinion, it is the place to be! As a resident, I love this vibrant city with stunning nature and appealing outdoor lifestyles; as a student, I enjoy my study experiences being enriched by high-quality academic sources and various social and cultural opportunities and as a future teacher, I appreciate everything this place has offered me. I couldn’t think of anything better than settling down in this amazing city full of opportunity. 

Ever since I arrived in Darwin, I have received so much support from the local community, and now what I am trying to do is give back to this place I call 'home'. I am volunteering with various not-for-profit local organisations, representing students at CDU Students' Council and I was also appointed as a member of 2021 NT Government Youth Round Table. All of these experiences are helping me move towards my goal – to facilitate an inclusive environment and improve community cohesion and wellbeing for all Territorians. 

As a Study NT Student Ambassador, I warmly welcome you to begin your new chapters on this land. I believe the unity of us can make the Northern Territory an even friendlier place for everyone. Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much!
