Knowledge is power because by sharing knowledge practice it pushes us to be a better us and drives us to see if we have what we need and if we use what we have.
What advice would you give to UEL current students preparing to graduate?
Be yourself but always your better self because you've got to be okay on your own before you can be okay with somebody else, as our attitude is our responsibility to ourselves and community we live in.

Absolutely! The continuous e-comm makes me feel as I'm still part of UEL.
