Reflecting on my Faculty-led Global Short Program at the 12th USLS in Bangkok, I enjoyed several unique experiences. I had the chance to represent my university at a prestigious event in the UN Conference Centre, which was both an honour and a learning opportunity.

I had to spend the first couple of days in my Japanese home, only leaving for some local sight seeing and grocery shopping. Once the schooling began, the experience…

I’ll start my blog by saying that my university social experience before going to Malaysia had not been that interesting whatsoever. I had made 0 uni friends, and I didn’t really have any desire to make new friends. So, going into this trip, I was very anxious to meet the other students who would be…

Last year whilst I was deep into the UTS spring semester I received an email in my inbox: “Explore Data Science In Paradise”. Usually, I would ignore such a bold claim, but eager to procrastinate my work, I read the email and was amazed by the opportunity it provided. Fast forward a couple months later,…
