Applying for the role of event coordinator for the Vietnamese society can be an excellent opportunity for my personal and professional growth. As an event coordinator, I would gain valuable experiences in planning, organising, and executing events, which helps develop essential skills like time management, communication, and problem-solving. This role also provides me a chance to work closely with the society members and leadership, fostering teamwork and collaboration while getting exposed to fundamental skills and knowledge from other core team members whom I really look up to. Additionally, being responsible for events allows me to bring creative ideas to life, as it requires me to design engaging activities that align with the society’s mission and cater to its members' interests. Successfully coordinating events can enhance the society's reputation, attract new members, and create memorable experiences, making a real impact on the organisation and its community. Lastly, this position can serve as an impressive addition to my resume, showcasing my flexibility, leadership ability and initiative, which are valuable in any career path. I have had a few experiences in event coordinating, particularly the family charitable organisation or the Women's Day event back in my high school. With my humble abilities, I am eager to learn and will apply I have learned to make a contribution. Thank you for your time and consideration.

If elected, I will focus on organising intercultural events with universities across the UK to expand the UCL Vietnamese Society’s outreach and foster growth. While we already have a strong presence in the Southeast, there’s also a significant Vietnamese community in the North, where I have valuable connections that could help us organize future collaborative events.
In addition to social events, I aim to support international students in navigating their careers by inviting Vietnamese guest speakers from various sectors to provide guidance and share insights with students interested in career development.
To increase funding, I will actively seek new sponsorship opportunities and engage with Vietnamese businesses that could support future events, making our society even more multicultural.
I believe these objectives will have a positive impact on members by enriching our cultural activities and enhancing the professional development opportunities available, especially for international students exploring career paths in the UK.
I bring a wealth of leadership experience, including serving as House Captain and Senior Prefect in my boarding school, where I organized large-scale events with over 200 attendees and coordinated charity events that raised over £200. These roles have strengthened my skills in communication, time management, and problem-solving and have taught me how to effectively lead teams under pressure.
I am confident that my experience makes me a strong candidate.
