Free Hype Society: Treasurer

I really believe that the society is a great opportunity, not just for experienced designers hoping to make an impact in the community but also for budding artists who want more experience. I would love to get involved in the society for this reason exactly, and hopefully bring my organisation and financial competency to help it progress even further. I have experience in budgeting, particularly in creative department, through my time developing a product for Young Enterprise, where we had to source and manage products and finances. This has taught me the practical skills that I hope to bring to the society (as well as some creative ones too!).

Hi! I am Fion, a second year Law student running for Treasurer of the Free Hype Society. My interests outside of academics include fashion, art and music.

My interest in running for Treasurer stems from my appreciation for the society's goals - encouraging creative aspirations and providing support to individuals and organisations trying to get a foot in the door of an often exclusive and inaccessible industry. These concepts align deeply with my own values, and thus I wish to be a part of a community that benefits those who often go unheard.

Financial responsibility and stability is something that I believe is integral to the functioning of any society - especially one as dedicated to pro bono work as the Free Hype Society! My background in finance includes hands-on experience providing financial advice for my parents’ family-owned small business and handling the relevant expenses. Such experience has led me to develop sound financial literacy that is critical for the role of Treasurer. I envision maintaining accurate financial records, ensuring responsible budgeting, and fostering an environment of trust within the society.

I am excited about the prospect of dedicating myself to further the objectives of the society in its fresh start and I am committed to upholding high standards of financial management, and maximising the resources available for the benefit of us all.

Thank you for considering me for this role; I look forward to meeting everyone!
