Bio
Blaž Kranjčev
I worked with Shail within the biggest society at Cass Business School. He truly shined in his position as Vice President of Events and I must say as a whole he gave a lot to the society. I was always impressed by his proactive approach and problem-solving abilities. Student societies face numerous challenges but Shail was able to manage them perfectly and became a very valuable part of the university itself. I wish him all the best as a President of CEN in the following year.
