      This time has given me invaluable experience in developing an eye for a good story and writing a weekly article of 500 – 1,000 words on top of my studies. I wrote 15 articles in 5 months, with topics including feminism, Covid policies, and the death penalty. I particularly enjoyed writing an article commenting on a pro-choice protest that occurred at my university, as I interviewed attendees and received very positive feedback from my peers and readers.

      • Jul 2021 - Jul 2022

      I worked diligently as part of a team to run Exeposé. With my co-editor, I commissioned, edited and published 4-6 articles every fortnight. This developed my research and editing skills, and I learned to effectively use WordPress. This role tested my values when the society unjustly took down a student’s article due to a difference in political beliefs. As an advocate for free speech, I worked with the student and the Student Union to appeal this decision and try to get his article republished. I worked diligently as part of a team to run Exeposé.

      My organisational skills and conscientiousness enabled the society to run smoothly. Working with the other committee members, membership grew substantially and turnout to our weekly events was regularly between 50-70 members. I consistently stayed on top of my roles for submitting risk assessments, communicating with the Student Union, running elections, and completing other administrative tasks.
