Receiving the New England Award - A 2020 Academic Achievement

Despite the unprecedented challenges of this year, including the Covid pandemic, one thing has remained clear - where there’s a will, there’s a way.

I’m truly honoured to have received one of Australia’s prestigious academic awards, the New England Award, marking a proud milestone in my personal and professional journey.

This academic achievement is more than a recognition - it’s a testament to the power of perseverance, dedication, and a deep commitment to lifelong learning. As this chapter closes, I step into the new year with gratitude, optimism, and renewed purpose.

To everyone navigating study or professional growth during challenging times: keep going. The path may be tough, but your efforts will open doors you never imagined.

Wishing you all a joyful and fulfilling New Year ahead. Goodbye 2020 — hello 2021! 🎉
