Gaya Giritharan

Hi everyone, I’m Gaya and I’m running for Vice Chair of Cardiovascular Society!

In this role, I aim to ensure the smooth running of the society by managing key responsibilities and working closely with both chairs to ensure our events and initiatives are executed successfully. As ViceChair, I will prioritise maintaining clear communication within the committee and making sure that all tasks are completed efficiently and on time. Ultimately, I hope to be a reliable and proactive support for the team, ready to step in wherever needed.

Regarding experience, as county chess captain, I have had the opportunity to lead players of various ages and actively engage in tasks such as coordinating logistics, analysing performance and acting as the primary liaison between team members and officials, all whilst creating a supportive, enjoyable environment. Proactiveness, effective communication and delegation are also skills I have developed through leadership positions such as orchestra manager of ICSM Music and SORA Committee.

I believe the aforementioned skills and my enthusiasm will aid me in being a capable Vice Chair. If elected, I will leverage my diverse experiences to facilitate the successful execution of the society’s initiatives, fostering an enjoyable experience for everyone!
