  Screenwriting

• Why did you choose to study in Melbourne?

  Melbourne is such an artistic and lively city! There’s never a shortage of gigs, restaurants, bars, cafes, shows or op shops.

• What is your favourite thing about being a student?

  I love my course and exploring my passion for film and television. Also, student life is great for constantly meeting new people and exploring the city.

• What is your favourite thing to do when you are not studying?

  When I’m not studying, I love painting or going to galleries – & luckily the NGV and ACMI are super easy to get to. Also, with Chapel Street so close, it’s a great place to go op shopping.

• What is your favourite thing about Iglu?

  The people! Iglu is a great place to make friends and the facilities like the terrace and the movie room are great places to hang out.

• Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

  Still in Melbourne, because it’s such a great city!

• What words of wisdom would you pass on to future Iglu residents?

  Go to the events! Free food + friends!
