Student Voice

Cauthan
Certificate IV in Information Technology (Programming)

Hello everyone.  I'm Cauthan, an International Student at TAFE SA.  I joined TAFE SA at the beginning of 2022, and the past few months have been a wonderful experience for me.  Being a student centric person, I enjoy helping and interacting with fellow students. I endeavour to try and have unbiased views of what is important to all students so that I can represent all views and opinions. I believe in constant student consultation on what actions they want to happen.  Joining the Student Voice group will give me the chance to interact with my fellow students, seek and share their opinions, views and needs with the TAFE SA administration.

Sophia
Diploma of Nursing

Long story short I did hospitality/bartending for 10 years and I got sick of seeing the detriment that drugs and alcohol have on the community up close so I decided hey, why not do something about it? Que career change and here I am! My goal is to become a qualified RN and work in the public sector for mental health to support those who need it most. Personally, I have lived experience and have been a vocal advocate for years now. I run fundraisers for Beyond Blue and The Black Dog Institute and am very passionate about doing what I can to support the people around me. I also volunteer for Sea Shepherd Australia (time permitting) to go around cleaning up our beautiful beaches and at music festivals around Australia. If you see me floating around campus don't be scared to grab my attention, I'm always down for a chat about anything! I'm a sucker for animals, music, plants and the occasional cocktail when I'm out with friends :)
