Meet Charlotte!

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering (Honours).

I have a diverse range of hobbies that keep me creatively and actively engaged. I love capturing moments through photography; cooking and baking are my passions, and I love escaping into nature. Additionally, I have a knack for doing my own nails, often trying out intricate designs that reflect my artistic side. 💅

 I enjoy being a UniMentor as it is incredibly rewarding. I get to support and guide my peers, fostering a sense of community and mutual growth.

Meet Christopher!

Christopher is studying a Master of Finance (Financial Planning).

People’s initial interaction of Chris is that he may seem serious, but he’s very friendly and helpful 😊

Chris loves the fact that he can meet and interact with new people and be a guiding force for fellow students who have just joined Uni. Being a UniMentor has also helped him develop his leadership, communication and time management skills 🙌

Emily-UM_350x400.png

Meet Emily!

Emily studies a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours). 📚
 
Emily loves being a UniMentor as she gets the chance to help others through the overwhelming demands of university. She wishes she had someone to turn to when first started university and was struggling through a course she didn’t enjoy.
 
In the end, all she wants is for her fellow students to succeed and be happy, however that looks for them. ❤️

Meet Samantha!

Samantha is studying an International Master of Business Administration (Advertising and Brand Management). 📚

Samantha loves swing dancing, it's her stress-buster! 💃

The best part about being a UniMentor for Samantha is meeting peers from different parts of the world at university events and finding similarities despite cultural differences. 🌎

Sasha-UM_350x400.png

Meet Sasha!

Sasha is studying a Bachelor of Laboratory Medicine (Honours), chosen due to an obsession with Sherlock Holmes! 🧫🔍 Sasha finds it fascinating how the author would analyse and come up with laboratory procedures that weren't invented during that time to solve a case. 🔬

One of Sasha’s hobbies is crocheting organs, “because I can't collect/store the real ones.” 😅

Sasha loves being a UniMentor because “I am able to challenge myself and develop my skills even further while also meeting new people from whom I can learn and discover new knowledge”. Being a UniMentor is a great way to meet new people, and connect with others in your degree, regardless of year level. ✨

Smit-UM_350x400.png

Meet Smit!

Smit is studying a Master of Information Technology (Enterprise Management). 📚

Smit loves cycling and tried shipping his bicycle from his home country to Adelaide so that he can explore different places by riding. 🚴

Smit likes the UniMentor program a lot because it has allowed him to engage with a lot of students. Smit prefers working on helping students and creating a great environment for them at UniSA. Through this program, Smit got to do what he was inclined to do and is looking forward to continuing to help students. 🙌
