Bio:

Hello gals, guys, and nonbinary pals! I’m Sukhmani Kaur, and I’m a sophomore at the University of Alabama at Birmingham majoring in Neuroscience on the premed track. One thing I love about college is that you are encouraged to learn about everything that you find interesting and that you are able to discover new interests! Personally, some of my interests include art, graphic design, dance, journaling and writing, cooking, and playing lots of card games with my friends! At college, I feel like I’ve been able to expand upon these interests but also find new things that I now love to do.

I would like to be an advisor to help students who are applying to or transitioning to college because I know it can be confusing and difficult. I want to be there for guidance and any additional support for my Sangat because I know I would have appreciated it!
