Summary
As an international student, I understand how challenging it can be to adapt to a new country, environment, and community. Having gone through that experience myself, I am motivated to support other students who may be facing similar difficulties and help them feel more comfortable and welcomed.
I am aware that the Harbour community includes students from many different countries, and my exposure to diverse cultures has helped me develop cultural awareness and the ability to connect with people from various backgrounds. I believe this will allow me to build inclusive relationships and contribute to a positive living environment.
I also take responsibility seriously and understand the importance of following community guidelines. I will lead by example by consistently following the rules at the Harbour and encouraging residents to do the same, helping maintain a safe and respectful community for everyone.
