Election post
Growing up in India, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, France, and Korea has exposed me to the contradiction of how global disparities in health outcomes persist despite advances in medical technology. Witnessing these disparities firsthand sparked my passion for biomedical engineering. While my surroundings have changed over the years, my fascination with understanding the human body has been a constant in my life. From a young age, I would spend hours poring over biology textbooks and designing my own messy DIY physics experiments. These explorations helped me realize that my dual interests in science and engineering weren’t separate passions but rather two sides of the same coin, a sentiment I am sure my fellow engineers can relate to. This sense of discovery and innovation is what drives me today, and it's what I hope to bring to my peers as First Year Representative.
I understand that engineering can seem intimidating, especially for those just entering the field, so my goal is to help foster an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome to explore their interests, ask questions, and take risks. With my experience as a maths and physics tutor for the Mu Alpha Theta Mathematics Honor Society and National Honors Society, I have honed my skills in leadership and creating a space where others feel encouraged and supported.
I am committed to dedicating my time and energy to helping you get the most out of engineering at UCL while being a friendly face you can count on.
