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

I am a very organised person with strong skills in communicating with people and finding solutions to problems. I consider myself a very pragmatic and determined person and I believe it is the main reason why I could be a good fit for this role: when I face any problem I like to evaluate all the possible solutions and I am not happy until I find the best one. I am therefore very open to listening to student's troubles and find the best alternatives. My communication skills also allow me to be a good teammate, as I love to work in a group and I think this would make me highly engaged with all the other reps.

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

My aspiration for the future include the diplomatic world or the political life. Even if I am still a bit confused on which one of the two I wanna choose, I know that a leadership position in a big organisation like UCL will be a great start for both. I believe I will not only develop skills in leadership that you do not find in normal internships, but I will also perhaps clarify what I wanna do in my future. Personal experience aside, I hope to be a very active faculty rep and actually make a change/help when I am needed. I really hope students would be able to rely on me and know that I am a shoulder to lean on.

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

I believe one big advantage I could bring as a faculty rep is that I am a very active listener. I not only say this as a personal skill, but also as I have attended courses on active listening and I have studied and practiced the best techniques for this practice. The reason why I believe this is important, is that, when investing a leadership position, people rely on you to listen to them! People often just wanna be heard and I am sure that I can deliver that well :)
