Meet Ritika Sharma (She/her) your Resident Assistant at Rice Apartments, and your go-to person for making Halifax feel like home.
 
She is an international student from India chasing a master’s degree, so she knows a thing or two about starting fresh. By day, Ritika is turning data into answers at Saint Mary’s University, pairing a Master of Business Analytics with a graduate diploma in Healthcare Data Analytics. By sunset, she’s outside, head tilted toward the sky, chasing fall colors and scribbling poetry.
 
Ritika believes in dreaming big, manifesting the life you want, and, in her own words, making your own kind of music. Her door is always open. Stop by, say hi, and let her know how she can help.

Meet RA Matthew! (he/him)

Matthew is a New RA for Rice Residence! He’s a fourth year Computer Science and Business Administration major from The Bahamas. Around campus, Matthew has been involved as a Pack Leader, a volunteer with the Community Food Room, participated in Societies, served on the SMUSA Board of Directors, and is now a SAGA volunteer!

Matthew is very competitive and will jump on an opportunity to play organized sports with friends. His favourites are Basketball and Soccer, but he’s occasionally up for some Badminton.

Outside of sports, he loves to play guitar and listen to jazz. “Jazz is easily my favourite genre, and I’ll probably try to convince you it’s the best genre too”.

Matthew enjoys pushing himself outside of his comfort zone “Running and swimming aren’t necessarily my favourite things in the world, but I do them anyway because one of my long-term goals is to complete a triathlon/Ironman. I’m always looking for something new to work toward and keep me busy”.

In his own words: “I believe you have to make the most of what you have, and if you’re given an opportunity, you should get involved and always say yes!”

We’re glad you said yes to being an RA!
