I would love to nominate myself for the position of dental rep. I am a third-year dental surgery student and skiing enthusiast.

I must confess, I haven’t had the pleasure of joining an LMADSS trip yet, but I have been on a Leeds Snowrider’s one... However, I’m sure with the superiority of a medics and dentist society, the LMADSS trip would be unparalleled!

Having been treasurer and a member of exec of the University Women’s Rugby Club, I understand how the engage committee dashboard works and the enormity of running a uni society. With two years of committee experience under my belt, navigating group dynamics and handling details that keep a club running have become second nature. I am organised, reliable and dedicated, this has been proven by my time on the Women’s Rugby committee where I had to manage the club finances with an average monthly outflow of £5000. This experience has enabled me to understand the importance of sponsorship, reaching targets and ticket sales, all aspects I believe will be transferable to LMADSS committee. Managing a cohort of 125 rugby girls has equipped me with the patience of a saint which will be a needed skill when coordinating a group of uni skiers!

With connections to other dental schools (if the LMADSS committee are keen) there is already interest in doing joint socials or meeting up while on the trip. But, if we want to keep it strictly Leeds, I will use my powers of persuasion to ensure that the number of dentists on the trip can rival that of the medics. With the collective power of my housemates- eight dental students strong- I will try to ensure that LMADSS sees the biggest dental turnout in history!
