siti aisyah yazid

My name is Siti Aisyah. I'm currently a first-year social work undergraduate at SUSS. I have a passion for helping the vulnerable improve their quality of life and helping those come out of troubling situations that they are in. During my free time, I enjoy watching Netflix movies with my mother, especially psychological thrillers and comedies. I also love spending time with my three cats too. I am responsible and independent, I'm able to manage my time and work well. I am an efficient person. I enjoy trying new things that challenge me and help me to improve my skills. I have the determination to succeed and I'm always looking for an opportunity to do better.
