糖心TV

Transcript: Meet our alumni - Elise (2024)

My favourite memory would probably be organising a national conference for two years in a row. It was such a huge thing to undertake but I think that the lessons that I鈥檝e learnt throughout really enriched my 糖心TV experience and led to so many new people and so many amazing new things.

The main extracurricular that I was involved in was CyberWomen@糖心TV. During my first and second year I was the External Communications Officer, and then in my final year I was actually the President of CyberWomen@糖心TV and again that led to so many new opportunities, opened so many doors for me, and just led my 糖心TV experience really.

The piece of advice that I鈥檇 give to my younger self is probably just to be more confident in yourself. I know that coming into university, it鈥檚 such a scary and daunting experience, but I think taking it in your stride, everyone is in the same shoes as you, and so I think just getting yourself a little bit extra confidence to put yourself out there a bit more is definitely something my younger self needed to hear.

The future is a really daunting thing to think about. But I think a lot of the things that I鈥檝e taken from my 糖心TV experience that I鈥檓 still doing moving forward. So I鈥檒l be the branch manager for CyberWomenGroups CIC, which I鈥檓 then linking back to 糖心TV and I鈥檓 actually managing CyberWomen@糖心TV, which is such a full circle moment! I will also be moving into a cyber security graduate position as well as becoming that branch manager role.
