When I started at UCL, Red Star was the first society I joined, first trial and first social I went to. Those socials have given me some of my very best mates. I’ve been to all bar one Scalas and Red Star socials this year (medical exemption ofc)  So I know as well as anyone what makes a good social. Being close with this year’s social secs has given me decent insight into what makes a good one. I’m a keen leader, like taking control of projects and seeing the rewards. An anecdote I can’t help but mention was the organisation of my boys lads holiday, organising 16 lads flights, hotels, insurance, transfers etc is just an example of my confident and composed leadership when it comes to seeing the lads have a good time. I’m a confident outgoing people’s person so I know how to encourage participation but also ensure, once the boys are there, that we have a good time. I have some really close friends across a range of societies so joint socials would definitely be on the cards. 

I know how important socials are to Red Star. So, since we’re in separate teams, it’s important that our socials are both enjoyable and get everyone involved. That’s two things I know I can do for the lads. I’m not a shy guy so if I know somethings on, I’ll make sure everyone knows. Having been to (almost) every Scala and social this year, I know the standard that’s been set and I’m ready to maintain it.

 If elected, I can’t promise we’ll remember all socials, but we won’t forget them. UTFRS🔴⭐️
