Prime Minister’s Scholarship for Asia, Reimagining India with IndoGenius
Introduction
Tena Tatou!
Ko Sheldon Kahui Rogers toku ingoa.
He uri tenei no Nga Puhi, Ngati Porou me Waikato Tainui.
I am based out of the University of Waikato studying Law with a double major in Psychology. I love being outdoors, being around friends and playing sports, especially Rugby League (Up the Wahs). I am very excited to connect with the people of India and exchange cultures with them. I am also very interested in learning more regarding their law system and how it relates to us here in New Zealand. I aspire to work in either a law firm or with the United Nations some day in some sort of capacity, I am hoping that this programme connects me with mentors, that I am able to work with, to gain as much knowledge as I can.
