FORMER CANDIDATES

Picture
The President is to coordinate and serve as the leader for the organization. I ran last year because I wanted to bring back activism to SFSS, returning to its rich history of student unionism. This work must continue. This past year, I successfully: advocated for, and implement, a P/CR/NC grading scheme to give students relief during the pandemic, achieve significant milestones in making the Burnaby Mountain Gondola a reality, stop the invasive exam proctoring pilot project that SFU was conducting during remote instruction.
I am running because student power matters to me.

I am running because change doesn't take time, it takes pressure

 I am passionate about equitable access for marginalized communities and to have students on and off campus feel as if there is a Student Union that truly works for them. 
Over the past four years, I have worked in a multitude of positions to equip ne for the role ranging from Administration, HR and Bookkeeping in the Healthcare and Mortgage Sector, all transferable skills for the Finance and Services position at the SFSS.  In addition to this, being in the faculty of science and my love for numbers  has made me excited and ready to analyze and plan for SFSS operations for the long term.
I am running because Student Unions need to work directly for students
