Union President
Camille (she/her)Hello! This is Camille, your Union President.
I joined Imperial in Oct 2019 as an aeronautics undergraduate. My favourite part of being a student was my time in clubs & societies. I was a keen netballer, rugby lass and snowsports gal, which meant my Wednesdays often revolved around Harlington and the union. In my third year, I became President of the netball club and in my final year I organised the snowsports trip to Tignes for a couple hundred people keen on the slopes.
A bit more about me.
My hobbies include not knowing how to dance but doing so anyway, getting competitive (mainly through sports) and spending time with the people I love. The most fun fact about me is that, in a past life, I was a Wimbledon ball girl, so I’ve touched more famous tennis player sweat than I like to recall.
Why Imperial?
My favourite thing about Imperial is the people it attracts. That’s not to say that everyone is everyone’s cup of tea…but I truly believe I found my people and I love being surrounded by driven and stimulated individuals.
My 2024/25 goals:
- Lobby to increase the London allowance for PGR students
- Create more IDX module opportunities
- Increase the amount of green and study spaces on campuses

Deputy President (Education)
Emina (she/her)Hi hi! I'm Emina and I am thrilled to be your Deputy President of Education this year.
I started at Imperial as a Biological Sciences student, spending some time planning events and running the BioSoc committee before joining the Bioengineering Dept as a masters student and Rep.
A bit more about me.
It's not the most obvious answer since my accent is all over the place from moving around so much.
I am a big fan of anything West End, from musicals to plays, ballet and opera (really maxing out what's left of my Young ROH). That being said, I love being active in CSPs and hope to continue to do so in the coming year (I am looking at you, archery) and will probably see a couple of you at Ethos!
Why Imperial?
The highlight of my time at Imperial has been being part of such a diverse student community and being able to make friends from all corners of the world.
My 2024/25 goals:
- Review and tailor assessment feedback practices.
- Standardise mitigating circumstances across different departments.
- Organise Alumni networking opportunities early on in student’s degrees with a focus on exposure to unconventional career paths.
- Increase communication with the Representation Network.

Deputy President (Clubs & Societies)
Christian (he/him)Hi, I’m Christian, your Deputy President (Clubs & Societies) this year!
My role involves supporting and representing all the Clubs, Societies and Projects (CSPs) at Imperial College, ensuring they have the resources and support they need to create a fun, rewarding, and inclusive environment for all students!
Before becoming DPCS in 2023, I represented sports clubs as the Sports Chair and Sports Treasurer for two years, responsible for representing the interests of our sports clubs as well as organising the infamous ACC sports nights!
A bit more about me.
Since moving here I’ve played hockey for Imperial College Hockey Club – one of the reasons I initially became involved with the union.
In my spare time, I love to run and I relax by playing the piano, which I have done since the age of seven!
Why Imperial?
My favourite thing about Imperial is how diverse the student community is, and how much there is to get involved in, from playing sports to performing in a musical, there’s something for everyone!
My 2024/25 goals:
- Develop the CSP Sustainability Framework to ensure that all CSPs can strive towards sustainability and be rewarded for doing so.
- Expand the Student Experience Fund to ensure that as many students as possible can access it.
- Improve committee support and the volunteering experience through improved training, response times, and support.
- Review and improve funding opportunities and the annual budgeting process for all CSPs.

Deputy President (Finance & Services)
Stephanie (she/her)Hi! I’m Stephanie, your Deputy President (Finance & Services) for another year!
During my time as a student at Imperial, I did Biomedical Engineering! Outside of my studies, I was also the Ethics and Environment Officer for our Liberation & Community Networks, as well as the Management Group Chair for recreation Clubs, Societies and Projects (CSPS).
As DPFS, I am here to deliver the best services with our students and for our students, including our bars, shops, and events. I also work alongside Christian to oversee the finances of our CSPs. Beyond the "finance" and "services" aspects of my role, sustainability is another key focus for me.
I started as your DPFS one year ago because I wanted to make a positive impact on a larger and wider scale, and I have had an absolute blast in the past 12 months speaking and working with all of you and I look forward to another year to continue embedding the changes I’ve made for longer lasting impact!
A bit more about me.
I enjoy a good game of Mahjong, a tasty cup of bubble tea, and long, nice naps with my plushies! I also like cooking and baking, so if you have any recipes to share, please do :)
Why Imperial?
My favourite thing about Imperial are the people and friends I have gotten to know, but I also enjoy a mean pint of extra-sweet blackcurrant soda from our bars!
My 2024/25 goals:
Building upon some of my work over the past year, my goals in the year ahead include:
- Sustainability: Delivering the Union Sustainability Strategy
- Community: Working with students to deliver safe & inclusive events for all students, with a focus on a non-drinking centric culture, inclusion of our postgraduate students, and a celebration of our diverse cultural communities
- Accessibility: Ensuring accessible prices across all our services at the union (bars, events, shops etc.)

Deputy President (Welfare)
Nico (he/him)Hi I'm Nico, and I’m your Deputy President for Welfare this year recently graduating in Theoretical Physics.
I was involved with the union through sessions at the DJ & Production Society, while I was balancing my studies and a part-time job.
A bit more about me.
When I'm not working, you can find me at home trying to teach English to my two cats, making music on my native instrument, the ronroco, learning new recipes, or exploring random interests. My special interest for the past year or so has been hydroponics and future food systems.
Why Imperial?
My favourite thing about Imperial is the diversity. I love the multicultural environment that enables the collaboration of brilliant minds from all across the globe.
My 2024/25 goals:
- Continue working on fostering a welcoming environment, facilitate more recreational spaces, and enhance communication between students and the union.
- Implement the mental health strategy, continuing the work done by my predecessor and the Mental Health Officer.
- Develop a platform to redistribute surplus food across campus, addressing both the cost of living crisis and food waste.
- Expand mentorship programs connecting underrepresented students with alumni.
- Host more inclusive activities with societies, making it easier for students to meet people and participate in union-hosted events.
- Be an accessible and supportive representative, keeping my ears open to student feedback and new initiatives.
