At UBC, I've served two years on the UBC Senate, a year on UBC's Board of Governors, and over two years on AMS Council, where I've chaired three committees. I've managed staff and volunteer teams, been responsible for millions of dollars, and fought for students and won. These wins included over $200,000 in undergraduate research funding, $800,000 in continued food security funding, $40,000 minimum funding packages for PhD students (up from $24,000), and a number of policy changes, including requiring AI policy in syllabi and increasing supports and funding for wellbeing. I also was a club executive for several years and an AMS Resource Group president for two years, managing hundreds of thousands of dollars and large teams.

Why I'm running:

Over my time in the AMS, I've seen the AMS fall short in a number of vital areas.

As an executive and President for a number of AMS subsidiaries, I have acutely felt the challenges in relation to room bookings, reimbursements, and funding, and know where the AMS needs to improve.

The AMS has forgotten some of the most important parts of being a student union. It's forgotten to be the voice of students, listen to their needs and values, act with moral clarity, and prioritize the services and supports that students need most.

I'm running to change that.
