Elected
What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?
I have been a longstanding PhD faculty representative of the Bartlett School for two years consecutively. As well as a student representative for 1 year. Within this time it was extremely insightful to learn about the spatial and networking needs of the phd community and with this we founded PhDConnect! Which started as a funded BSSC department project consisting of 12 students to then winning a changemakers grant and escalating across the 9 Bartlett Departments for PhD students which has hosted over 170 students. https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/events/2023/feb/phdconnect-launch
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?
PhDConnect! are being considered to two new grant applications from the Bartlett School with an amazing team of 6. I am therefore seeking a developmental role, as I believe their are extreme lessons learnt from this PhDConnect! that can be scaled across UCL and it would be a pleasure to transfer this knowledge outward.
My qualities are mainly apparently through my active spirit and go getter attitude! As a positive and bubbly individual I intend to be an active listener and observer to the needs of students yet equally action on these needs to ensure we are constantly striving for impact..
Please summarise why students should vote for you.

If students are looking for change both academic and social during the time they are students then i am the individual to lean into motivating and driving change. The learning environment is critical to our lasting experiences and I would be deeply honoured to ensure that lasting memories are retained to each and every students research journey.
