VP Student Engagement STG
As VP Student Engagement, promoting extracurricular activities within the faculty is at the heart of my role. Recently, we have been working hard at MedSoc to ensure that equity is observed in such activities. This is especially relevant nowadays as this VP role also has a say in the amount of funding given by MedSoc to clubs to reimburse the costs they incur. Other aspects of my role include overseeing MedSoc resources, such as the med lounge, but that has been on hold due to COVID-19.

About Me
I love to try new restaurants and then try to replicate those recipes at home just based on what I remember what the food tastes like (which usually fails but is still pretty fun). I am a big reader, I often buy more books than I can read and then I end up buying more before finishing the ones I already have. Other than that, I love listening to music and going to concerts. And most importantly, a fun fact (the only fun fact about me really) is that I am obsessed with cats (and I have one myself!)
