Since starting at UCL this year, I’ve been involved in 13 productions both at and away from Blooms, taking leading roles in cast, crew, and production teams. My work both onstage and backstage has given me a well-rounded understanding of the community & infrastructure of ArtsUCL and what it needs to grow, an insight I’ve deepened through committee roles as Tech Officer for Live Music Society and Freshers’ Rep for Stagecrew. My extensive experience across multiple areas of the Arts along with a proactive approach will allow me to represent you all effectively as an Arts Rep.
ArtsUCL has been such a nurturing environment for me from the get-go, and I’m really grateful for the opportunities and people it’s given me this year. As we continue to grow, I’d love to help ensure it remains a supportive and accessible space for everyone involved. Having experienced the Arts from multiple perspectives, I bring both a holistic understanding and a fresh perspective on how our infrastructure works, and would use my intersocietal connections to strengthen communication. I’d approach the role with genuine openness and commitment to ensure that every voice is heard <3.
hopefully still very artsy & all
