Today is really exciting. I think it's really great to be able to represent our community and come along and receive this award.
I think it's the ‘who's who’ of the multicultural community, and so it's a privilege to be here.
As a previous international student, I'm very lucky to be standing here and to be having this award, be in this role and to share my experience with other community members.
It feels very empowering not just for myself, but for my family as well.
And hopefully it could be like an inspiration for other young people to look up to.
I've never had something like this, to be honest, so it definitely feels special.
I'm grateful that I've had this opportunity to come to this place today.
It feels unreal, honestly. Today has been so special because everyone feels seen, the communities feel seen, and I think it inspires.
