Why should you choose me as your student representative?
I am friendly and am always approachable. In addition, I have done things fairly and never let personal affairs get in the way of my job.

- Prompt release of lecture notes on Blackboard
- I was a former Year 1 Aerospace Student Representative. See below for a list of achievements
What have I done for you?
Here are some of the things I have done for you so far:
- I have raised the student concern about Year 2 regarding Thermodynamics II final exam being extra hard and covering topics not seen during lectures. Dr. Chris Arnold said they have curved the grades upward.
- I have managed to get the Fluid Mechanics final exam answers to be posted on Blackboard.
- I am pushing for the final exams answers to be release at the start of the term.
- I have pushed for new copies for the Thermodynamics Booklet, and we got 20 new copies in the library. I have sent an email around saying that students lacking the booklet for the class test could photocopy my copy of the book; two students took me up on the offer. I have also talked to Dr. Nick Croft, the portfolio director, about the issue and he assure me he will be looking how to alleviate the issue.
- I try to help students out in need. I have a created an Aerospace Facebook group for students to gain help to questions they have.
- I alleviated the overcrowding of the Engineering Analysis II class at the beginning of the semester. I brought the issue up at the staff meeting and the staffs have allocated us a new session on Thursday.
- I try to handle complaints appropriately to the best of my ability. However, there are some things, that are outside of my realm. Even then, I would try to redirect the person to the most appropriate representative.
- I have liaise with Simon Forster to get the worked example for Engineering Analysis I final exam.
