Jessy Renouf, proud Gubbi Gubbi woman, student ambassador, and Justice and Psychology student

Ask all the questions is what Jessy tells us. I'm with you Jessy! We are so proud of Jessy and her passion for helping community. Jessy crams life full of good things and here, she tells us how she manages and how she stays engaged. I am so deeply impressed with what our students are capable of and where their 'real world' aspirations are taking them. I am thankful for Jessy reflections on what it means to be an Indigenous student at QUT and her advice on how we can do better to support Indigenous students. When you've listened to Jessy talk to us, check out her TEDxQUT talk.
