Collective priorities 

• An independent Students Union 

• Being more accountable to students 

• High quality student representation & events 

My strategic priorities

• Active & engaged students 

• Independence & accountability 

• Sustainability & Continuous Positive Development 

While delivering an enhanced programme of positive and sustainable change, I will be accountable along the way, promoting the delivery of independence for our Students Union.

I will support high quality service delivery in the areas of student representation and events. 

A university should be a place of free speech, academic freedom, somewhere students can express their knowledge and academically formed opinions and understandings. Students should be empowered to shape their experience and have their say on issues affecting them to encourage change. 

Students should receive a high quality of welfare support along with high quality extra curricular events and activities, ensuring students are given a good chance to relax and enjoy themselves. 

I have 3 years experience as CEO of a organization representing young people. I have learnt how to effectively ensure students are represented, I've learnt what works and what doesn't. 

Being the current Environmental & Ethics Officer at the SU I have learnt a lot about the student union and how to best support the other officers of the SU to achieve the most effective outcomes for students. 

Being Residential Assistant at Verney Park has taught me about issues faced by students. I have an understanding of student priorities. 

I've had high level strategic roles in large organizations, this experience has taught me how to deal with the challenges of bureaucracy, C-level management and how to best work collectively with a board, to achieve what is wanted and needed. 

Other experiences have also taght me how to work with others well and communicate with people, sometimes in very difficult situations.
