I bring a wealth of experience, skills, and qualities to the role of Secretary. As a student from India, I understand the challenges faced by international students in the UK.

My experience running two businesses has honed my organizational, communication, and administrative skills. Additionally, my roles as Events Officer for the UCL Mathematics Society and First-Year Representative for the Jain Society have refined my leadership abilities and commitment to fostering inclusive communities.

I am dedicated, empathetic, and passionate about creating a welcoming environment for all students. 

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Students should vote for me because I bring a wealth of experience, strong organizational and communication skills, and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by international students. As an international student from India, I am dedicated to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment. My leadership roles in UCL societies and my entrepreneurial background have equipped me to effectively serve as Secretary. Let's work together to make the International Students' Network a supportive and engaging space for everyone!

What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

No matter how long we’ve been in London, it’s not quite the same as home, is it? 

I aspire to foster a strong community in which everyone is able to thrive and retain the sense of comfort that home brings. I want to make our Network more visible and involved in the lives of our students, so that everyone is able to make the most of the support the Network provides.

I aim to create strong interconnectivity between us international students, so that we are able to make the most of our education abroad.  

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

In the past, I’ve served as Head Boy to a diverse mix of international students, giving me the opportunity to provide pastoral support to many, so I’m deeply committed to further strengthening our international community here in UCL. I’ve also had experience in bringing people together, having organized several fundraisers in my hometown, so I bring the interpersonal and organizational skills required of our Network’s secretary.

Though I may be busy at times, I’m approachable too, so feel free to say hello. 

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

As I’ve shown, I have the skills, experience, and dedication to be an effective International Student’s Network Secretary. If voted in, I will serve you, members of the International Students’ Network, and the Student Union, to the best of my ability. Take no concern, I will not allow for a student to go uncared for, nor a need to go unmet. 

Peace and take care.
