For one ambitious, future
lawyer, a longstanding commitment to helping others and connecting
with influential leaders to achieve real change will follow her
throughout her career alongside a drive to pass on everything she
has learnt so far.
In this episode of The
Protégé Podcast, host Naomi Neilson is joined by final-year
Australian National University (ANU) international securities and
laws student Angelique Nelis to chat about some of her many
incredible achievements and how everything she has done has served
vulnerable communities and her peers.
Some of these
accomplishments include studying at The Hague Academy of
International Law, participating in the Change the World Model
United Nations (CWMUN) in New York and representing not-for-profit
groups like the NSW Women’s Alliance and the Alliance of Girls’
Schools Australasia.
Angelique has also
connected with a number of influential and inspirational leaders to
inform the best practices for helping others. Before flying to New
York to represent Samoa as a CWMUN delegate, Angelique reached out
and connected with the Samoan high commissioner in Canberra to
discuss the very real issues.
In the episode, Angelique also shares advice for other
students on following a similar path, talks about mentoring and
shares her international law ambitions.
