Riya Sharma

Hi, I'm Riya, a first year medic and I'm super excited to be running for events officer. Being a part of Hindu Society has made my transition to university so much smoother, it’s given me a strong sense of community and I've had a great experience attending events like the Mastani Ball and Garba where I've made some of my closest friends.

I’d love to be part of the committee next year to help others have the same amazing experiences I’ve had. I think I’d be a great fit for this role because I’ve gained a lot of team experience through things like Young Enterprise, where I honed my organizational and leadership skills. I also led Hindu assemblies at school, which taught me how to manage my time effectively. These experiences, combined with my ability to work well in a team, will help me organize fun, memorable events and be a reliable member of the committee. I’ve already got a few ideas in mind, like a book club and rangoli making, and I look forward to bring them to life!

As your events officer I would aim to make next year full of exciting and wholesome events for everyone.
