Aikido Club: President

I really enjoy the inclusive and mutually supportive environment of the Aikido Club. Even with just a relatively short time of training, i already feel a great sense of belonging to the club. Hence, I hope to dedicate myself to not just maintain this harmonic environment but also pay a role in promoting the club to other students as part of the committee team.

I am running for the role of President particularly because of the recent incident of last-minute cancellation of our room booking by the TeamUCL. I hope my opinion is just exaggerating, but I have to admit that I felt sort of unfairness towards the club from this incident. I really hope to contribute to improving such condition with better, more equal communication with TeamUCL and Student Union, and I believe this is what only the president of the club could do.

I also have confidence in my ability as a student leader as the bridge between our instructor, student union and club member from my past experience of both a section leader and vice chairperson of my high school wind band, and a student leader for a community care team of Hong Kong Red Cross.

I am communicative, responsible, and persistent. I want to be part of the Aikido Club, and help keep it running in the following years. I'm not the most advanced Aikido student, but I want to do my part in helping the club going forwards. 

I have experience with organisation, logistics, and responsibility, as the Hall Rep for Langton Close/Frances Gardner, and my positions in club leadership during my last years of High School. By attending Hall Rep meetings, I've gotten used to the bureaucracy of the SU, and believe I am at least somewhat prepared to deal with them.

When there's a role to be filled, I try to step up to fill it - somebody has to do it, and I would give it my all if that person were me.
