Xavier Parker

As Treasurer this year, I've managed our finances and seen first-hand how our society operates and what our members want. I have learnt what works, what doesn't, and what we're capable of. I'm running to deliver consistency, ambition, and real growth.

Fortnightly Workshops: Our workshops this year were sporadic and unpredictable. I'm committing to consistent fortnightly sessions with both beginner and advanced levels, so everyone, from first-timers to experienced builders, has room to grow.

Hackathons: Two targeted events per term to keep our members engaged and building. A simulation hackathon for software robotics, and a CAD hackathon to sharpen design skills. These create momentum and build portfolios. 

Competition: A society that competes is a society that's serious. We're entering Unibots and putting ourselves on the map as competitive. This gives us a rallying point and attracts people who want to be part of something that wins but is accessible enough for students new to robotics.

Community & Partnerships: Robotics is about people. I'll organise non-technical socials to strengthen our bonds and build partnerships with Fleming Society, KCL Robotics and Queen Mary Electronics. These connections matter for recruitment, collaboration, and a stronger network.

I'm not making fantasy promises. These initiatives are realistic and deliverable because I understand our resources and constraints.
