Kaja Posnik

Hi everyone! My name is Kaja, I'm a Neuroscience student at UCL and my home town is Grojec, south of Warsaw :).

A position of responsibility requires passion for change, engagement and effective communication. It calls for creativity, teamwork and resilience - qualities I aim to develop every day and would continue if trusted with the position of President of society.

Taking from my experience as a Prefect, public speaker and a person who loves getting involved in initiatives, I believe that talking to each other is the basis of resolving conflicts and discussing ideas. If elected as the President, I would ensure anyone could share worries with me and I’d try my best to help.

I would work with other members to carry out music showcases, pierogi sales (the heart of Polish culture), poetry nights with works of Szymborska and more, as well as movie screenings to show the international community at UCL the beauty of our culture and create real impact. One way I’ve been doing it so far is by teaching Polish to international students! 

I am grateful to the Polish community for such a warm welcome to UCL. I would love to continue spreading this feeling. I am not a competitive person and believe in the power of collaboration, so feel free to challenge me with all types of tasks, I’ll try my hardest at them! I don't judge and am really open to constructive criticism. 

I would be honoured to guide the society into a great future. See you around :)).
