Hello and welcome! My name’s Jen Ruskowsky, and I’m so excited to be your 2025 ADSA President. I’m a 4th-year dental student at Griffith University, passionate about oral health promotion and building a community that supports students both academically and professionally. 

Dentistry has given me so much through the people I’ve met, and I want to give back by creating a more connected, transparent, and enriching experience for students across Australia. As President, a lot of my role involves working with committees, partners, and organisations to move projects forward, solve challenges, and make sure student voices are always at the heart of what we do. 

This year, ADSA’s focus is on delivering more diverse educational resources, improving communication through newsletters and social media, building stronger partnerships, expanding networking events, and maintaining financial transparency. 

Our committee is full of passionate, creative, and driven people who are here to support your dental school journey and help you succeed as future professionals. I’m really looking forward to the evolution of ADSA – please don’t hesitate to reach out or say hi! 

Cheers, Jen Ruskowsky ADSA President, 2025
