Congratulations, Dr. Aisha Williams — You Did It!

Family, friends, and mentors shared their pride

In seven years of supervising doctoral candidates, I have rarely seen someone with Aisha's combination of intellectual rigor and genuine curiosity. This achievement is entirely earned. The research community is lucky to have her. Congratulations, Dr. Williams — the real work starts now, and I cannot wait to see where it takes you.

Professor Lin Chen

PhD Supervisor

Four years of library sessions, 11pm panic calls, and celebrating every small win together. There is genuinely no one I would have wanted to go through this with more. You carried me through more than you know. Dr. Williams, the world is yours. So proud of you.

Study partner & friend

My daughter, the doctor. I have said those words out loud every single day this week and they still make me cry happy tears. You worked so hard, for so long, and you never once gave up. I am beyond proud. Your grandma would have been absolutely beaming.

Mum

From the little girl who used to come into my study and ask me what all the books were about — look at you now. You've surpassed all of us. I have never been more proud of anything in my life than I am of you today. Go change the world, my brilliant daughter.
