What impact would you like to have as a Sabbatical Officer?

My primary goal in this position is to serve as a dedicated Equity and Inclusion Officer for everyone. I am committed to ensuring that every student on campus feels included, represented, and safe.

As a passionate advocate for mental health, one of my top priorities is to enhance the equity and inclusion standards of UCL’s mental health services.

Additionally, as the first-ever UCL East student to take on a sabbatical position, I aim to bridge the gap between our campuses. I will work tirelessly to transform UCL East into a vibrant hub for all creatives and athletes, fostering a sense of community and ensuring the full integration of East students into campus life.

What is your advice to students?

Step out of your comfort zone and connect with people from diverse backgrounds. Embrace spontaneity—it's the key to creating unforgettable memories.

Make every single day count because your time here will pass by faster than you can imagine! The first few months might feel overwhelming, especially if it's your first time in London. If you ever feel this way, be kind to yourself and remember that our Sabb team is always here to support you.

Don't hesitate to reach out—we're here to help you navigate this exciting journey!
