Wei Ting Chua

Hi everyone, my name is Wei Ting and I'm a first-year Law student! As the 2022/23 Communications Officer, my main goal is to increase engagement and participation in UCL Hiking events through publicising events on Instagram, Facebook and Discord (I also hope to start a Telegram group, which can accommodate more participants than Whatsapp). Even before matriculating, I found out about UCL Hiking on Instagram. UCL Hiking has since become an integral part of my student life and I hope to share my love for hiking through exciting both freshers and current students about hiking and the society as a whole.  

From managing the Instagram, Facebook and Telegram channels as the Head of Content for the United Kingdom Law Students' Society and gaining 700 followers in a month for a local cafe's Instagram account to creating content on my food photography account (@weitingforfood), I believe that my varied experiences have empowered me with an understanding of how to diversify reach, generate enthusiasm and effectively engage both members and potential members. With skills in newsletter design, photo-editing and content creation, I am creative and highly organised, and would love to serve as UCL Hiking's Communications Officer. Open-minded and outgoing, I enjoy meeting new people - as the 2022/23 Communications Officer, I'm excited to encourage many more connections within the society through increasing participation from the student body. I'll be WeiTing for your vote!
