Investment Society: Vice President: Events

Hi everyone, my name is Justin. I study statistics, economics and finance and I am running to be your events VP.

In my current role as the UCLIS first-year representative, I have made contributions to different departments. This gives me a solid understanding of the demand for this role and how UCLIS runs. My participation in organising the UCL financial conference highlights my journey in UCLIS, this experience demonstrates my communication and event-holding skills. Also, seeing the success of the UCL financial conference further motivates me to take on this leadership position at UCLIS and to give back to our members.

If elected, I will carry on with the events held by previous committees such as coffee talks, pub socials and expand UCLIS events variety in order to accommodate the different needs of our members. Also, I aim to forge great relationships and hold events with different societies. With cross-society events, there will be more networking opportunities and potentially open up career paths for members. Cultivating a welcoming and inclusive environment is also one of my main agendas, it is important for all UCLIS members to feel like they are part of the community.

Having been in numerous leadership roles and events holding positions, I believe I am a strong candidate for this role. I recgonise the importance of this role and look forward to bringing exciting and fulfilling events to all.
