Be bold! Courage and resilience are not necessarily inherent traits; they are habits that take time...
Where would you like your degree to take your career?
I hope to establish a successful career in administrative and employment law. I also have aspirations to be called to the Bar.
Are you working while studying? What does your job involve? Is it related to your degree?
I am presently working for the NSW Government. My job entails performing investigations into allegations of staff misconduct. I also support the internal legal unit with responding to requests for advice concerning specific investigations.
How do you manage the competing demands of university and work?
I was very fortunate to have a supportive workplace that allowed me to work part-time when I decided to enrol in full-time study. By being proactive about university assessment deadlines, I was able to schedule my commitments effectively, thereby minimising any conflicts.
What would your advice be for someone who is looking at studying Law at UTS?
In the words of my Real Property lecturer, "Be bold!" Courage and resilience are not necessarily inherent traits; they are habits that take time to embed into one's personality and will take you a long way.
