Andre is a sthird-year undergraduate at Tembusu College, pursuing a double major in Psychology and Sociology. Andre’s true passion lies in understanding and connecting with people on a deeper level, beyond surface-level interactions. He firmly believes that each individual has a unique and purpose-driven story waiting to be told.
To that end, Andre is an active participant in Tembusu’s collegiate life, and loves meeting new people! He is the current advisor to both tFreedom and LoveTembusu interest groups. Additionally, Andre has served as a Tembusu College Ambassador and a member of the Ora House Committee, contributing to the planning and organization of College-wide and House initiatives. He is also interested in research on GenAI, mental health and inequality.
During his leisure time, Andre finds solace in the pages of a good book. You’ll hardly catch Andre without his trusty earphones, constantly diving into a mix of hop-hop and indie rock tunes. He is also a life-long Manchester United fan, albeit largely a couch critic! Apart from that, he enjoys both desktop and VR games, ranging from Civilisation V to Beat Saber, whenever he can carve out some time.
In his role as a residential assistant, Andre aspires to foster a sense of belonging and create a second home for all residents. He is deeply committed to establishing a safe space where individuals can freely express themselves without fear of judgment – he is an introvert by nature, after all! Andre believes in employing a non-judgmental and empathetic approach to pastoral care, always ready to lend a listening ear and engage in meaningful conversations. Feel free to say hi, if you see him around!
