I'm a second-year Brock University student studying data science, and I've had the chance to get really involved with both academics and campus life. A university education should, in my opinion, be broad, providing chances for both intellectual and personal development as well as social engagement. I've discovered over the last two years how crucial it is to provide a welcoming and encouraging environment where all students, regardless of background, feel like they belong to Brock community. Developing such an atmosphere is essential to assisting students in achieving success in and out of the classroom.

Along with my studies, I am actively participating in campus co-curriculum organizations and student union. As the Brock University Students' Union's (BUSU) Vice President External Affairs Advisor and Clubs Funding Advisor, I have worked with many student groups to make sure they have the support and tools they require to get success in their university life. I've been able to work with colleagues to enhance the overall student experience, listen to students' problems, and speak up and be their voice for their needs. I now realize that meeting many requirements of the student body needs open communication, honesty, and strong backing networks.

I also participate extensively in Brock's athletic and fitness programs, which have been crucial to my time at the university. I've had the opportunity to interact with students from many faculties through indoor sports and fitness programs, which has improved wellbeing and fostered a sense of unity and diversity. In addition to giving students a method to be active and healthy while they study, sports offer a special means of building relationships and promoting teamwork spirit.

A key component of my time at university has been my participation in a variety of student groups. These clubs provide an environment for both academic and personal development by bringing students together through common passions and interests. Student organizations at Brock, whether they be recreational teams, cultural groups, or professional development clubs, help foster the sense of belonging and community that is necessary for a successful University experience. I personally see how these clubs give students the chance to actively participate, pick up fresh abilities, and form lasting relationships.

If elected to the Senate, I will promote a Brock University that places a priority on accessibility, diversity, equality and student well-being by drawing on my background in student governance and my participation in campus events. Regardless of their interests or background, I'm determined to make sure every student has access to the support and opportunities they require to thrive. All students can have a university experience that enables them to realize their full potential in terms of their academic, social, and personal aspects when universities support policies that encourage mental health, accessibility, and student participation.
