I'm currently pursuing a Master of Medical Laboratory Science at Charles Darwin University in Australia. My academic journey is in the field of healthcare and scientific discovery, with a focus on contributing to medical diagnostics and patient care.

As an NT Student Ambassador, I am excited to represent the vibrant and multicultural student community in the Northern Territory. Studying in Darwin is an enriching experience, offering not just academic growth but also the opportunity to immerse myself in Australia’s unique culture, landscapes, warm community spirit and especially the climate which suits well.

Before moving to Darwin, I completed my undergraduate degree in India, where I developed a strong foundation in dental sciences. I’ve always been fascinated by the behind-the-scenes role of medical laboratories in saving lives, and my current program is equipping me with advanced skills and knowledge to excel in this field.

Beyond academics, I enjoy connecting with people and sharing experiences. Being an ambassador allows me to inspire and guide prospective students, showcasing the educational opportunities and lifestyle the Northern Territory offers. I’m particularly passionate about creating an inclusive and supportive environment for international students, helping them navigate the challenges of studying abroad.

In my free time, I love enjoying the scenic beauty of NT, experimenting with new cuisines, and participating in community events. 

As I continue my academic and professional journey, I’m committed to making a positive impact in the field of medical science and fostering a strong sense of community among students in the Northern Territory.
