Hey there! I'm Carmen, a second-year law student at Grey College (one of the best ones!). I'm originally from Malaysia, but I've fallen for Durham's charm and history. As a welfare officer at my college, I'm always here to lend an ear and create a safe space for everyone. I also juggle a part-time job at the uni, so I'd love to chat about balancing work and studies. Being an international student, I understand the challenges of adapting to a new culture. I also identify as disabled and queer, and I'm always open to sharing my experiences or offering support if needed. If you're up for a chat about life at Durham or uni life in general, I'd love to get to know you!

Hello there!
I'm Carolina, and I'm excited to share a bit about myself with you.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from the Polytechnic of Turin in Italy, and I also pursued a Master’s in Advanced Architectural Design at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Strathclyde. These academic experiences, along with my current PhD studies, have fueled my interest and knowledge in Academic Skills.
For me, being an architect means more than just working with blueprints on a screen. It's about delving into all the stages of a project, considering the surroundings, their history, and the people who will live there. I never tire of investigating problems and searching for the best solutions.
My educational journey, combined with my extracurricular experiences, has ignited a special passion for languages, particularly English, Spanish, and German. Learning these languages has broadened my horizons, allowing me to better understand and appreciate diverse cultures and traditions.
Thanks to my academic pursuits and my background in extracurricular activities, I've honed my ability to connect with people and communicate ideas clearly. On a more personal note, I adore cooking, traveling, photography, watching sports, and staying active by participating in various sports.

Medicine
I am from Taiwan, and I am now a 4th-year MBBS student at Brunel Medical School. My special interests in medicine include Immunology and Neurology.
I chose to study Medicine because I love science and art, and Medicine is the perfect combination of both. I particularly love the Brunel MBBS Team-Based Learning model (TBL) as it guides my learning journey as a medical student very well. The early placement opportunity since Year 1 has been the most rewarding learning experience for me.
