Election post
If elected as Treasurer, I will focus on organising intercultural events with universities across the UK to expand the UCL Vietnamese Society’s outreach and foster growth. While we already have a strong presence in the Southeast, there’s also a significant Vietnamese community in the North, where I have valuable connections that could help us organise future collaborative events.
I bring a wealth of leadership and financial management experience, including serving as House Captain and Senior Prefect in my boarding school. In these roles, I organised large-scale events with over 200 attendees and coordinated charity events that raised over £200. These roles strengthened my communication, time management, and problem-solving skills and taught me how to lead teams effectively under pressure.
During my time as UCL’s Secretary, I’ve cut costs for events such as the flower-making event, allowing us to stretch our budget further and provide even more events. My time as Secretary has also honed my ability to work under tight deadlines. To increase funding, I will actively seek new sponsorship opportunities and engage with Vietnamese businesses that could support future events, making our society even more multicultural.
I am confident that my experience makes me the ideal treasurer and I would love to work with next year’s committee!
