What experience and qualifications do you have?
I have previous experience with SGA at UMBC. I was the Vice Chair of the Finance Board for the academic year of 2010-2011 and the Secretary of the Finance Board for the academic year of 2009-2010. With this experience, I can contribute what I have learned and take part in making good decisions to allocate funds for organizations and clubs. I am qualified for this job because I am responsible, honest, a hard worker, and am a student here at UMBC hoping to change UMBC to an even better community. I have attended many events and have a good idea to know what to look for when we decide on what and what not to fund. I have been told by my peers around me and believe that I have the dedication for this position and the right mindset to perform the job as a Finance Board Representative at UMBC.
What is your platform? What do you hope to accomplish if you win?
As a Finance Board Representative, I will help allocate funds to the organizations and clubs on campus in an appropriate and equitable manner. I hope to bring new ideas to the Finance Board and take part of the many discussions that will take place during the school year. I hope to allocate funds without being bias, but by looking at the organization to see if it will benefit the UMBC campus and students. I would like to support the organizations by being accessible and by communicating with them. I also plan to participate in SGA decision-making by making wise decisions. I hope to accomplish an improved campus with an increase in an exciting and educational campus life. I would also like to increase the hands on educational experiences that will be taking place as well as spreading the cultural aspects by promoting diversity to UMBC.
What I really want students to know about me is….
I am a hard and dedicated worker and am excited for the next year. I have enjoyed being on the SGA this year and hope to be a part of it next year as well. I will try my best to fulfill my objectives for office and to do what is expected of me and hopefully even go beyond that as a Finance Board Representative of UMBC. I hope to bring diversity to another level by promoting it and to take advantage of what we have. I believe we have the potential as a school to see change and an increase in student life as well as incorporating it to an awesome educational experience where we will look back in life and smile.
Platform Summary:
- To help allocate funds in an equitable and consistent manner and to make judicious decisions for the SGA.
- To improve campus life and student organizations by helping them carry out their goals and to support them
