Mia was the first PhD student I met when I joined the Department of Material Science and Metallurgy at Cambridge and she immediately made me feel extremely welcome. She told me about her research and explained a few concepts that she had learned about when she was in my program. She would be a wonderful educator.
I know Mia personally and highly recommend her as a tutor! She is supportive, kind, and patient, and always puts effort into supporting others in positive and encouraging ways. I would definitely trust her to help someone build the same sense of drive and confidence in their studies that she shows herself.
