When I came to London, it was the first time I lived by myself, away from my parents, brother,Ìýpets,Ìýand friends. Although itÌýwas sometimesÌýan overwhelming experience, I enjoyed my yearsÌýand journeyÌýin higher education immensely:ÌýI met many interesting people, made some very good friends, and created a new life for myself.ÌýÌý

What do you like most about your work as a Student Adviser?

As a Student Adviser, one of the aspects I like most about my role is being able to help students. Although some parts of the role can be very challenging, it's very rewarding seeing students thrive and complete their studies and knowing you were part of the process of helping them out.

What's a surprising or interesting fact about yourself?

IÌýlove going to conventions! I have been several times toÌýComic-conÌýand have always cosplayed.Ìý
