Design Engineering: Treasurer

Hey Dessoc Members!

I'm Jiashuo Meng from DE1, and I'm excited to announce my candidacy for Treasurer. With a knack for smart spending and a commitment to fueling our creative missions, I aim to ensure every penny propels our society’s success.

Why Me?
As someone with sharp financial sensitivity, I’ve honed my budget management skills through hands-on experience. For instance, I redesigned the budget for my high school’s New Year celebration by renegotiating vendor contracts and optimizing schedules, slashing costs by 25%. This not only kept the event transparent but also allowed us to surprise every classmate with extra gifts—proving that strategic finance unlocks bigger possibilities.

My Three Pledges:

Full Financial Transparency

  • Publish monthly visual reports (think infographics, not spreadsheets!) to track every pound spent on events.

  • Embed a live feedback form in each report so YOU can shape spending priorities in real time.

Maximizing Resources

  • Build a Supplier Alliance Network—negotiate group discounts with local vendors and diversify partnerships for better deals.

  • Launch a "Green & Lean" initiative to cut waste and redirect savings toward member perks (like free workshop materials!).

Innovative Collaboration

  • Roll out Creativity-to-Cash projects: Host member-led merch design contests (profits fund future events!) and skill-swap workshops.

  • Partner with event teams to create a flexible "Rainy Day Fund for spontaneous opportunities (like last-minute guest speakers!).

Let’s Make Finance Fun & Impactful!
I’m not just about numbers I’m about turning budgets into tools for creativity. I’ll ensure Dessoc’s resources empower YOUR ideas.
