Yinyi Yeung

Hi guys, I’m Yinyi and I’m interested in running for Events Director this year! This past year, I have been able to meet so many different people through Abacus events and make some lifelong friends. I am excited about the opportunity to serve in this role as it would allow me to bring new ideas to the table as well as work with others in a group to provide the best experiences for you guys!

Being in boarding school, I have had the opportunity to arrange boarders’ dinners for celebrations like Chinese New Year which taught me the skill of communicating with restaurants as well as venues. Working to run a fashion show for charity in high school as well, I learned to manage ticket sales and event planning. These experiences in planning and management will be a valuable asset to the role and working with others, especially from different universities as well.

I’m also interested in organizing more events in addition to the existing ones so that everyone can meet new friends and feel included in the society. As events director, I would like to focus on creating events that cater to the diverse interests of our members, allowing their ideas to be heard and bringing them to life! I am committed to maintaining and building on the welcoming and inclusive environment of the society through this role. Next year, I will do my best to work alongside the rest of the committee to create unforgettable events that will bring us all closer together!
