Hi everyone, my name is Nyree and I'm a 1st year Arts & Sciences student running for sports secretary and welfare officer!! I'm UK born and raised but am Malaysian Chinese!!

Joining ABACUS has been a fundamental reason as to why I have had such a good time socially during my first year at UCL; I have met so many cool people and made some amazing friends! Therefore I would love to give back and be a part of the society's development and growth!

Even though I am not the most athletically gifted, I am a big sports enthusiast and believe that taking part in sports is one of the best (sober) social activities! I currently social media manage for the UCL table tennis society, so I already have experience contributing to a committee, in particular a sports one! I would love to help diversify the range of sports events that UCL ABACUS offers, for those who want to play competitively and socially!! (perhaps even a table tennis x ABACUS crossover??) Additionally, I have actively participated in This Girl Can events and think working with this campaign would be a great way to increase female participation in ABACUS sports events!!

Inclusivity and safety are such important factors when running a society, and since this role also includes being welfare officer, it would be my number one priority to look after everyone's wellbeing. I'm super easy-going and open-minded, and would love everyone to feel comfortable in approaching me if there are any safety or well-being concerns :)
