A little about this mentor:

I'm currently studying Psychology at Western Sydney University. As an international student, I understand how overwhelming starting university in a new country can feel  -  from adjusting to a new education system to building friendships and managing responsibilities. I joined MATES because I want to make that transition easier for you. Outside of my studies, I enjoy exploring new places, trying different activities, and spending time doing things that help me relax and stay balanced. I'm here to support you, answer your questions, and help you feel confident and connected during your first semester. I'm really looking forward to meeting you all!

A little about their culture: I come from India, a country rich in culture, diverstiy, and traditions.  Growing up in such a vibrant environment has taught me the importance of family, respect, and commujnity.  Festivals, food, and togetherness are a big part of my culture, and I love sharing that warmth with others.
