What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?

Hey I’m Demi! I’m the President of UCL Calisthenics Club and Sports Rep.

This is what I will bring to this role:

  • This year I was a Sports Rep and worked with the current sports officer in a job-share at the Union Executive, the highest level possible in UCL’s policy change.
  • As president of UCL Calisthenics Club, we tripled our members to become one of the most popular sports clubs at UCL.
  • For 6 years, I’ve helped pioneer the sport of Calisthenics; through social media with a following of 250k+ and founding the University Calisthenics Association, bringing together over 30 universities.
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

A.C.T

  • Access: Sport is for EVERYONE. University can be one of the last opportunities to try a new sport - I aim to maximise this opportunity by increasing the exposure of sports that are less established.
  • Create: Having successfully developed a sport from grassroots level, the importance of media presence is unavoidable. I aim to progress UCL’s sports media and create more hype at the biggest UK university!
  • Together: To bridge the disconnect between RUMS and TeamUCL. I’d love to work with RUMS to maximise UCL’s overall sporting presence and unify students - strength comes in numbers.
Please summarise why students should vote for you.

In short, there is no other candidate more suited for this role.

My experiences have naturally led me to be prepared for this position, but more importantly, I have an unconditional love for sport. This role has been staring me in the face since I begun sports at UCL, and I can promise that there is no one else who would be more enthusiastic representing UCL sport than me. I'm determined to make an impactful change and spread the passion. Bleed purple.
