Before pursuing postgraduate studies, Try completed a BSc in Mathematical Physics—a qualification he chose purely out of passion for the field. Following graduation, he took a gap year to explore other interests, particularly horticulture. During that time, he successfully ran small farm projects in Mogojogojo and Ramotswa, supplying produce to government schools and supermarkets. This experience deepened his problem-solving skills, resilience, and appreciation for community-centred work.

Try joined BAVA with a clear mission: to improve student representation, participation, and overall experience in Victoria. He is passionate about helping Batswana students feel supported, represented, and connected—both socially and professionally. His goals include increasing student participation by at least 20%, helping establish student-led entertainment and annual traditions, and strengthening relationships between students, graduates, and the broader community to create opportunities such as internships and professional networking.

Known for being a critical thinker, diplomatic, and driven, Try brings a collaborative mindset and strong problem-solving abilities to the committee. His ability to analyse, create solutions, and contribute thoughtfully makes him a valued member of the team.

Outside his academic and community roles, Try enjoys comedy shows, reading, and content creation. A fun fact about him: he teaches physics in Setswana on TikTok, merging culture with education in a fun and accessible way. He lives by the saying “Moroka o sita ka pula”, a reminder that patience and effort often bring fruitful results.
