Murraisha Burgess

I am a second year Law student. I am currently 25, I am originally from Bermuda and moved to England to pursue my dream of studying law. I Graduated High School in 2013 but had to work to save money to move to England to pursue my dreams. As I made the move alone, I know how hard it can be to adjust to the next chapter on your own. However, While on this journey I have faced many obstacles from family, financial, and mental & emotional. I believe I would be a great fit for this role because I know no one person has the same story and I strongly believe I can help others and create new opportunities from my own experiences. I am a very hard-working individual who likes to explore every option & outcome before making a decision. If I am successful in this role, I will engage with you and listen to your concerns to assure the opportunities and university life is accommodates all diversity and everyone has equal opportunities to succeed . Additionaly i am currently envolved with the curriculum development where i am working along side lecturers to provide a better learning community. within this project we are looking to make dmu learning experience diverse by looking at concerns of language that  some may find offesive in lectures for example, as well as other isssues .  I will be more than happy to share my story and listen to yours.

 

Sincerely,

Murraisha Burgess
