Tell us about yourself: I am in my third year of studying Biological Sciences out at the Polytechnic campus, I am involved in Barrett and am hoping to go to med school. I love animals, coffee, chocolate and the beach!

Best part of the school year so far? Getting to watch the jumbo-tron of the football stadium from my friends apartment at University House instead of standing in the hot football stadium.
