Elected
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?
I want to ensure that ChatGPT is never your first point of contact when in crisis (because it's meant for you to search 'explain this to me like I'm 10' instead)
- Cutting bureaucratic red tape: finding support should always be intuitive! It needs to be right there so you're connected and heard by someone who can help
- Clear charters for society welfare officers: support is not guesswork! Our officers know their members best, let's give them the support tools needed
- More focus and fund allocation to welfare initiatives: there's always something more to do than just 'check up on your mates'
What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?
I hope I am proof that welfare in societies is more than just a checkbox to tick off .... unlike my 20% ANAT0005 group presentation 😧😧
- I understand student advocacy; I am the type A friend: I've been an international student rep., student council advisor, course representative - your concerns won't be buried under admin speak
- I'm stubborn enough! I've edited my school's newsletters, done debate coaching - when I see problems, I hate ambiguous endings too much to just move on
- I'm 5'6 LOL ☠️, there's a good chance you're taller than me, so there's nothing to fear if you ever want to chat
Please summarise why students should vote for you.
To me, welfare isn't just slapping a bandage on to problems and calling it 'crisis response'. I want to ensure that you know what to do, no matter the situation. I'm all for simplicity, accessibility, and for things to be said and done, so that you are heard! I'm approachable, I'll listen - so hopefully with my prior experiences, you can trust me to fix it and make it work for you.
