Hi everyone! I’m Aizhan and I’m running for Treasurer of the Kazakh Society.

Over the past year I’ve been looking for more ways to get more involved with the society, especially as I’m going into third year soon and I know I’m really going to miss being part of this community once I graduate. Being around other Kazakh people at university has always meant a lot to me, so I would love the chance to contribute more to the society before finishing my time here.

A fun full-circle moment is that I actually attended the Central Asian Festival at UCL back in 2017, way before I knew I would end up studying here. It’s crazy to think that I now get to attend that same event years later, but with friends instead of family :).

I also already have experience in a similar role, as I’m currently serving as Treasurer for the Life Sciences Society this year. Through that position I’ve been responsible for managing budgets, arranging reimbursements, tracking spending, and making sure everything runs smoothly financially. If elected, I would make sure the society’s finances are well organised, transparent, and planned carefully so we can run events smoothly and make the most of the society’s funds.

And of course, I promise to keep the finances in check - no mysterious “lost” funds or late payments. Thank you for your support!
