Hi, I’m Imogen and I run the How to Student blog. Writing a blog was never really on my life radar but I’m finding it to be an entertaining and enjoyable experience. When I’m not blogging I can be found completing my Bachelor of Science degree, watching anime with my friends or riding the Segway at Questacon.
