Genetics Society: Treasurer

I possess plenty of experience and skills that make me the ideal fit for this role. I had a whole year of experience as a finance team leader in a society back in high school where I calculated and managed budgets for events, ensuring that every dollar was allocated efficiently and effectively. Additionally, I also wrote finance proposals which demonstrates my strong communication skills, which will be essential for any paperwork.

Moreover, working as a club founder and co-leader previously allowed me to gain essential skills for being a Treasurer. Collaborating with other club leaders, teachers, and student members, I was able to plan and execute three major fundraising events. Also, I was detail-oriented and created Excel sheets that enabled the earnings from the fundraising events to be transparent and error-free. This not only shows that I am equipped with the organizational skills necessary to work with money but also a great sense of responsibility and integrity. Needless to mention I am currently doing a STEM major which proves that I have sufficient mathematical skills for budgeting. 

I am determined to serve our society with integrity and diligence. I am very excited to work with the other members of the Leadership Committee to enable every member’s fee to go to the right place.
