VCE at St Michael’s Grammar, Melbourne [2012]
I completed my Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) in 2012 at St Michael’s Grammar School, a leading coeducational school in Melbourne. The VCE is Victoria’s senior secondary certificate, recognised nationally and internationally, and typically undertaken over the final two years of high school.
I joined St Michael’s in Year 6 and was appointed a Junior School Mentor. By Year 12, I had ranked in the top 10% of VCE students across the state. My results in Religion & Society and English placed me within the top 60 and top 800 students in Victoria respectively. I earned a study score of 44/50 in Religion & Society and, to the best of my knowledge, ranked equal first or second in that subject at school.
In Business Management VCE Units 1 & 2, I earned top honours as the school DUX, and in English VCE Units 3 & 4, I placed fourth overall in my graduating class with a study score of 45/50, securing a place on the VCE High Achievers List. I also completed Biology (Units 1–4), including participation in the school’s renowned Barrier Reef Project.
Beyond academics, I was fortunate to receive the Head of School Award (Sisters of the Church Award) for liturgical leadership, presented by Principal Simon Gipson and Father Cary Mansell in 2011. I was also awarded Sportsman of the Year in 2012.
Collegiate Athlete at University of Regina
[2014–2015]
During my final year of high school, I took on subjects like Psychology, Mathematics, and Biology with the goal of meeting NCAA eligibility requirements. Although these weren’t my strongest areas, I approached them with discipline and persistence. Ultimately, I received a collegiate offer in the Canadian Inter-University Sport (CIS) system.
I spent one year abroad as a collegiate athlete, completing subjects like English and Christian Studies. After a coaching change and limited opportunities for court time, I decided to return to Australia and refocus my energy on academics and service.
Tertiary Education at Monash University, Clayton [2016 Onwards]
After returning home, I accepted an offer from Monash University to study a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Human Rights and Philosophy. I performed consistently at a high level, achieving a strong average that secured my transfer into Monash’s Bachelor of Laws (Honours) program, one of Australia’s top-ranked law schools (QS World Rankings).
My legal studies have deepened my understanding of justice, governance, and rights-based advocacy, with a particular interest in Criminal Law, Human Rights, and Civil Liberties. In August 2025, I completed my double degree of Law and Arts (with Honours), securing 258 credit points out of the 252 credit points required for completion.
Further Studies
Outside of university, I’ve continued to pursue knowledge across disciplines that inform my work in health, support, and advocacy. I’m a Certified Strength Coach through the Clean Health Fitness Institute, having studied under Sebastian Oreb. I also completed AMA-accredited coursework in Lifestyle Medicine through Harvard Medical School, with a focus on the prevention of metabolic syndrome and chronic diseases.
I’ve furthered my education through online studies in Chinese politics and communism at Harvard, as well as Music Business at Berklee College of Music. These experiences have broadened my interdisciplinary understanding and added depth to my approach to coaching, education, and service.
