A Walk With Our Almuni: SilverSeaStar

Hi community!

I hope everyone has been keeping well! Today, I come bearing the experiences of one of the wonderful Content Development and Marketing Program alumni- @SilverSeastar!

Through this interview series, A Walk With Our Alumni, we hope to help current and future CDM trainees gain better insight into the program and make the most of it! So, without further ado, here is what our alumnus had to say about the program:

Q1. Hello, how are you doing today? Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?

Hello, I’m Silver. I’m doing great today!

I am a medical student from Indonesia. I am passionate about mental health and aspire to become a psychiatrist one day. I also enjoy creating content and expressing myself through writing.

Q2. When did you graduate from CDM?

I graduated on 25 September 2023.

Q3. What was your favorite part about the program?

There were several things I loved the most from the programme. 

💙 The programme pushed me to do my best and fulfill potentials I didn’t know I could reach before.

💙 I enjoyed getting through the programmes with fellow CDM trainees; they were all friendly and talented! 

💙 The mentors really helped me through my challenges and doubts during the programme as well, and on top of being amazing, the mentors also had exceptionally quick response time.

Q4. What was the most challenging part of the program for you?

I found deciding the topic and subheadings for my article the most challenging. It was a bit intimidating at first, but once I put my mind and effort into it, everything went swimmingly.

Q5. Do you have any words for current and future CDM trainees?

💙 If you’ve been thinking about becoming a CDM trainee, now is your sign to submit your application! I learnt a lot through this programme, and every step of the process was precious to me.

💙 If you are already a CDM trainee, thank you for applying to be one! I am sure you’re doing great and will continue to do well. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to a mentor if you need any support. I hope you enjoy your process through the programme!
