Kieran Lobo

Kieran is a senior Biochemistry major who hails from Perth, Australia, with a minor in Compassionate Care in Medicine. Kieran lives in Keenan Hall, and his favorite hall tradition is the Keenan Revue, a three-night comedy show filled with skits, singing, and dancing. Drawing over 6,000 students, families, faculty, staff, and South Bend visitors, it is the biggest event on campus outside of athletics.

Coming from the farthest city from South Bend, Kieran wanted a school where he would be welcomed unconditionally, and hearing about Notre Dame's dorm life and community sealed the deal. "I have absolutely found a place that has taken me in and surrounded me with students who only want the best for me," Kieran says.

Kieran served as Keenan Hall President and sits on the Hall Presidents Council and the Campus Life Council. He is also a Moreau Peer Leader and Captain for the Moreau First-Year Seminar, helping guide first-year students through their transition to Notre Dame. Kieran is a Tour Guide, chemistry tutor, and a Mass Coordinator at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. He is also involved with Senior Class Council, the Biochemistry and Chemistry Club, the Compassionate Care in Medicine Club, and the Spikeball Club.
