Enhancing Student Life | Empowering Communities | Supporting International Students
University is more than just academics—it’s about personal growth, skill development, and building a strong community. As a Student Ambassador and Community Warden, I have worked closely with students, clubs, and societies, and I understand how essential extracurricular activities, volunteering, and employability opportunities are for student success.
I am running for Vice-President Student Opportunities to expand access, create inclusive spaces, and ensure international students feel heard and supported.
My Priorities:
✅ Expanding Clubs & Societies
- Increase funding and support for student-led societies, making them more accessible to all students.
- Simplify the process of starting and managing clubs, ensuring student ideas become reality.
- Encourage more cross-cultural collaborations between societies to enhance the student experience.
✅ Enhancing Student Employability
- Strengthen workshops, networking events, and skills-based training to boost employability.
- Partner with local businesses and alumni to provide mentorship and job opportunities for students.
- Advocate for more paid internships and work experience opportunities, including within SUBU.
✅ Supporting International Students
- Amplify international student voices and push for better support services, visa guidance, and housing help.
- Organize events and buddy programs to foster integration and reduce cultural barriers.
- Work with SUBU and BU to ensure international students feel welcomed and valued.
✅ Promoting Volunteering & Sustainability
- Expand student-led volunteering projects, connecting students with local causes.
- Push for more sustainability initiatives on campus, including green projects and community engagement.
I am committed to creating opportunities, fostering inclusivity, and ensuring that all students thrive.
