Hi, I'm Rish and I'm running for one of the Marketing Officer positions for UCL Punjabi Society!
As the current Welfare Officer for this society, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time working with the committee to enhance the student experience for members. Through this role, I have gained valuable experience and developed key skills that would translate well into the position of Marketing Officer. In addition to my current position, I have also worked on the publicity team for RUMS, giving me extensive experience working with Canva and designing promotional materials.
If elected as a Marketing Officer, my main aim would be to improve the transparency and format of our social calendar. I believe that providing detailed information about upcoming events, as well as posting about them further in advance, would greatly benefit members and increase attendance. In addition, I would like to increase membership numbers by promoting the society through various channels, including social media and word of mouth.
In this role, I would also prioritise creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all members. Punjabi Society is a truly amazing community and has been nothing short of family for me this year. I hope to have the opportnity to continue making positive changes and reaching even larger goals this coming year <3
Sat sri akaal!
I'm Simi and I'm a first year student studying Biochemistry.
My love for Punjabi culture started young growing up in a big stereotypical crazy Punjabi family. I believe the culture has a lot to offer: lively parties, delicious food, dancing, vibrant outfits and being inclusive to all.
From a young age, I have always attended and taught at my local Punjabi school. This allowed me to reach out and connect with people who have common beliefs and morals as me. I firmly believe that everyone deserves the love and support I receive from this community, regardless of background.
Having been a teacher at the Punjabi school for the past 5 years, I was responsible for organising and advertising events and lessons to engage and attract more students. I was able to identify interests and tailor material to the students and parents.
Being a member of my council when I was at school, I have a lot experience in using my creativity to sell events and make them stand out. Working in retail for 3 years has also improved my communication and time management skills.
My overall aim is to expand the society's visibility at UCL to give anyone the opportunity to benefit from being involved :)
I like marketing. I can make cool videos and posters. Vote for me cus most of the posts last year were done by me. Vote for me thanks. I will be able to increase the visibility and awareness of punjabisoc as well as promote the diversity and foster collaboration and networking.
Hello everyone! I am Hannah, and I am currently a first-year student in BSc. Bioprocessing of New Medicines (Business and Management). As an international student from Punjab, my cultural heritage is an integral part of my identity and my experience in a foreign country. Celebrating and promoting Punjabi culture is of utmost importance to me as it helps me feel connected to my roots and community.
Furthermore, I believe my experience as the marketing manager for H&H, where I successfully operated the company's social media page, and my role as ECA prefect for my school, where I helped organize international round square conferences, have equipped me with the necessary skills to excel in this role. Moreover, I founded the debate club for YPS, which has provided me with a unique perspective on the importance of communication, coordination, and leadership. I am confident that these experiences have prepared me well for the challenges that come with being a marketing officer.
If elected, I promise to take all necessary initiatives to organize various events. I will use my skills and experience to create engaging content for our social media platforms and work tirelessly to promote our society's goals and values. Additionally, I am committed to providing excellent communication and coordination between the society and its members, ensuring that everyone feels included and informed.
Overall, my passion for Punjabi culture and my personal connection to it make me an excellent candidate for this role. I have the potential to make a
