Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

10 years? Hopefully by this time I’ll have graduated from law school and will be living in Europe somewhere! I hope to practice law in the UK. I really don’t see myself being married yet though. 

What 3 things would you want with you on a desert island?

I’m assuming you don’t need to worry about survival (for some strange reason). For me I’d bring a big suitcase full of books, a really thick notebook with a pen and LOTS of clothes. (There’s no way I’m wearing the same thing forever! haha)

Favorite thing about U of T?

I love the architecture at UofT the most. I mean, I just had a test in a room that looked almost exactly like a place you would find in Hogwarts. That just makes everything better.

Your idea of a perfect date?

Anything but a sit-down dinner. I’d rather go somewhere fun like a concert or a movie or just spend the day walking around Kensington. Dinners can become awkward so quickly, and I’d rather see how the person acts around other people in a more social setting.

Top 3 most attractive features?

1. A great smile 2. A good sense of humour 3. Good hair. But really, if you can make me laugh, you’re golden. 

What’s your life motto?

I really don’t think I’m old enough to have a “life motto” yet haha.

If you could tell your 16-year old self one thing, what would it be?

I’d tell 16 year-old Rajesh to calm down. Relax. Breathe. He was crazy.

Top 3 bucket list items

Too many bucket list items to count! If I had to choose three it’d be to backpack through Central Europe with friends, become fluent in Italian and write a book. 

Proudest accomplishment so far?

Getting my first real job as a Tour Leader for Grade 8’s to Montreal, Ottawa, and Quebec City during the summer. 

If they were doing a movie on your life, who would you hire to play you in the movie?

I’d hire myself. I’m pretty sure no one in the industry has the ability to portray a character as complex as me.

Natalie has recently completed her second year at the University of Toronto with a double major in History and Ethics, Society, and Law. She is excited to bring Her Campus to U of T and seeing it expand its presence in Canada. She is also active in the school's Model United Nations circles and numerous organizations off campus and is best described as a political and pop culture junkie. Born and raised in Toronto, she is blindingly proud of everything the city has to offer including the best school in the country, no matter what Macleans says, and its sports teams, no matter how many times they may lose or miss the playoffs.
