Hi, I’m Sara, and I am delighted to stand for Surgical Society’s Media Officer.

Having been a member of this society for two years, I have attended many conferences and workshops, all of which contributed greatly to my knowledge and interest in surgery as a career, which I had no exposure to previously. Of course, none of that would have been possible had I not learned about said conferences and workshops through the society’s social media platforms.

This year I have been on Global Surgery’s subcommittee as a media officer, therefore already having acquired experience in this position. I have great time management and communication skills and I am committed to making announcements promptly and in a useful manner, as well as liaising with other societies to maximise Surgical Society’s outreach. Additionally, I am also a writer, which comes in handy when writing up content to engage future surgeons!

I would love to build on the previous Media Officers’ wonderful work and continue promoting Surgical Society’s events, hence increasing accessibility to surgery, and ensuring as many people as possible learn about our work.
