Pegasus community advisers

Ara Prairie

Hi! You can call me Ara. I'm studying architecture you see, that means me being half asleep on my feet is my base form. If you're lucky, you might see me in other skins on special events. I'll be that NPC with a dialogue tree if you could spot me.

Hey! I’m Athira, or Athi, a master of banking and finance student and also student advisor at Pegasus college. I love meeting new people, getting involved in campus events and helping students feel at home .

Hana Smajic

Hi! It is my second year in the adviser program and I am loving it! I am starting a Masters of Business (Marketing), building on my Grad Cert from last year. I also help out as an administrative assistant for MSC. When I’m not cooking up a storm, I am either doing yoga or sleeping... It’s all about being zen! I also read almost anything that I can get my hands on!!! My two crazy dogs, a tiny red spoodle called Jasper and my kelpie called Thistle, are the centre of my universe. Please reach out to me about getting more involved in uni life. Whether it’s social or internships, I know Monash well.

Outside of uni, you'll usually find me watching Formula 1, discovering new cafés around Melbourne, binge-watching a great TV series, or catching up with friends.

I'm a proud social butterfly who loves meeting new people, building genuine connections and making everyone feel welcome. When I'm not buried in research or getting excited about a presentation, you'll probably find me cooking, shopping, saying hello to every doggo I meet or adding another plushie to my ever-growing collection. I'm multilingual, endlessly curious and always up for a good chat. I believe kindness, laughter and making people feel heard can make all the difference; and I can't wait to meet you!
