Hi there!
My name is Micah Baker, and I'm running to be your next Council Representative.
The CSSS has been a big part of my university experience; it has been my hobby, side hustle, and how I've made so many friends. The CSSS has been by my side through thick and thin, and I to the CSSS.
In the past, I've been a CSSS First Year Representative, Director of Educational Events, and Co-Chair of RETRO FROSH. To list just some of the things I've spearheaded through my volunteering:
- Karaoke Nights (BGN++).
- Numerous workshops (Git, Linux, Quantum Computing, ...).
- RETRO FROSH, an entire week of large events welcoming first-years to CS at SFU.
In addition to these, I've created and maintained valuable connections with various other student unions such as SUS, ESSS, CSGSA, as well as members of SFU faculty.
I have a unique understanding of the CSSS's operations, interests, and connections, which I can utilize within the SFSS Council with ease and passion.
As Council Rep, I vow to:
- Fight for our concerns and interests.
- Increase funding wherever possible.
- Expand our network and influence, connecting folks in the CSSS to important people in the SFSS.
- Bring detailed SFSS Council notes to CSSS General Meetings, sharing SFSS concerns and how we can best align ourselves.
For us to maintain good stature and continue to run successful events, we need a strong adhesive between the SFSS and the CSSS, and that is exactly what I plan to be. With me as Council Rep, I'll take the CSSS to infinity and beyond!
Best,
Micah Baker
TLDR: vote me to ++ the CSSS
