The duty of the EngSoc president is to represent its members to the school and the engineering community. If elected, I hope to achieve this by engaging more with the society members (all on-term engineering students) to better understand the desires of the student body. I have experience from being the Chief Feedback Officer in S25 in running surveys and collecting thoughts (yes, that was me spamming your inbox), and I hope to take this experience forward to help guide me in this role.

Additionally, I hope to bring more transparency to the role the president plays in the community; I believe that if the society as a whole has more knowledge about the responsibilities of the president, there will be more opportunity for members to reach out for support from the society and put our resources to good use. My main focus in these areas will be around our budget and how the EngSoc fees are put to use, working with the co-op office, and meeting with the university to improve accessibility and support.

If elected, I hope to lead in a way that prioritizes the future by changing the internal structure of the society. In its current state, there are a lot of people who have to dedicate a lot of time and energy into keeping the society running well. We should not have to rely on volunteers putting in this amount of work for our operations, and if elected I will work to make this effort more sustainable in the following ways:

• Collecting quantitative data about the results we achieve to determine the effectiveness of our work
• Prioritizing high-impact events
• Working with commissioners and directors to optimize the work being done
• Collaborating with the off-term society to ensure easier transitions between terms

My hope is for these changes to create a society that will be easier to work within and that provides a better experience for its members going forward.

Events are among the most recognized and impactful parts of the society, and they’re an area where I have extensive experience. As leader of the society, my goal would be to reconnect our events with their core purpose: supporting the students who take part in them. That support can take many forms: career development, mental wellness, or helping students build lasting social connections, and it’s this sense of purpose that makes each event meaningful. I would guide the society to run events with a sense of purpose behind them, provide more support for our passionate volunteers, and prioritize events which have the greatest impact. As president, I would ensure every event we host has a clear purpose and lasting impact, guiding my team to organize with this intent in mind.
