Why Western: Western provides a middle ground between academics and social activities, while still being a top tier school. The supportive environment Western is known for was a key part of my decision.
Why LAMP: When I joined Western as a first year student, mentors gave me more than I could've ever asked for. I feel grateful for that and I want to give back that feeling to all the first years coming in to Western. I will try my best to be as helpful as I possibly can to smooth your transition into University life. I hope you enjoy the Western Experience!

Tareq Tayeh
Faculty: Engineering
Third Year
Why Western? Western is a brilliant university. It has great education all round and got a lovely campus, one of the best (if not the best) in Canada. I chose to pursue Software Engineering at this university because of the small class sizes and the number of profs available to assist you with whatever you need, and that is extremely valuable and not common to find at top schools.
Why LAMP? I wanted to be a LAMP mentor this year because I love helping people and I believe I have the abilities to mentor successfully. LAMP assists first years so much and I would feel accomplished at the end of the year being part of this awesome program!

Why Western? Western offered the program that I was interested in during Grade 12, which has a great reputation. Western is highly regarded as a research-intensive public university. In addition, its campus is beautiful.
Why LAMP? I was very influenced by my LAMP Mentor in first year. He reached out to me and tried to help make my first-year experience most enjoyable, and provided me with valuable advice. I decided that I would like to deliver the same positive experience to the next generations of incoming students.

Leo Zhang
Faculty: Engineering (Software)Second Year
Why Western? I chose Western University because of the amazing opportunities and quality of student life that it offers. The dual degree program of HBA and Engineering between Ivey and Western was also the perfect program for me to pursue as I had a passion in both business and technology.
Why LAMP? LAMP is an amazing program that has really helped me during my first year. Now that I am in second year, I want to help the future first year students to have a strong start on their university journey with the lessons that I have learned from my own experiences.

Jason Ng
Faculty: Engineering (Mechanical)Fourth Year
Why Western? When I visited Western for the first time, everyone was friendly and the student atmosphere was great for learning and growing on campus. I love the blend of academics, extracurricular teams and social events that continue every year, and the multitude of clubs and teams at Western allows me to get involved and give back to the community.
Why LAMP? I had heard about LAMP since first year, but it wasn't until the beginning of third year that I started to get more involved with the program. The concept of helping others through leadership and mentorship really motivated me to get involved, and LAMP provided a place where I could apply and communicate the skills that I had learned to others. Looking forward to being your Team Leader for Engineering this year!!!
