[Visual] The alarm on a mobile phone beeps and displays 5:45am. The word “Run” appears on it’s screen. Samuel runs on a marked track just as the day is dawning.
When the alarm clock goes off at 5.45am in the morning and the legs are still floating, still burning from the previous days long ride - you just roll over maybe a little bit slower, but you still get moving.

Today may not the fastest day, but it’s probably the most important day because your mind won’t be at ease until you finish that run.

Following that voice of my inner passions has got me where I am today.

My name is Samuel Johns, I’m a SEO specialist at TripAdvisor in Boston.
[Visual] Samuel sits in an office with a laptop and searches for “Boston Hotels” on the TripAdvisor website.
What I learned at RMIT is the curiosity to explore the unknown and the empowerment to make decisions on the options that I have in front of me.
And then, also the openness to opportunity through RMIT’s global network connecting me with a college in America which got me my start.
