Hey, I’m Mihika and I’m standing to be MODO’s Social Secretary :) 

I’d like to continue upholding our society’s inclusive, empowering and multi-faceted spirit. MODO’s community was game-changing for me- making me confident, experimenting new styles, and meeting the loveliest people.

To sustain this ‘societal society’ aspect, I aim to build upon traditions while expanding the range of social events, factoring schedules and affordability. Here’s some of my ideas:

  • Friendly competition: Teams create outfits from a thrifting trip, which are presented in a mini-fashion show
  • Informal event: Designers become models, and models become designers after our annual fashion show 
  • Photo-walks which incorporate the chance for models, designers, make-up artists and stylists to collaborate, building connections (and portfolios!)

Leadership positions have strengthened my skills to plan and execute events: managing competitions with 600 participants and 21 events, social campaigns raising £500 for cancer relief, and mentorship initiatives. Besides organisation and consistent law-student work-ethic, my experience working in teams for youth-platforms and inter-city committees have grown my love for interacting and collaborating with others. 

MODO has allowed me to develop a second family at UCL, through outlets like the fashion show and magazine’s creation, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to continue levelling-up this atmosphere for members. A drink (alcoholic/not) is on me! ;D
