My name is Polly Yang, here’s why I should be your new VP of Operations. As a second-year accounting co-op student, I am held to a high academic and professional standard. Accounting as a profession has always highlighted the importance of transparency, and following rules for financial reporting. This is something that is desperately needed for the TMSU operations.
I am dedicated to increasing transparency and efficiency in the TMSU. TMU undergraduate students deserve more from their student union.
Currently, at my co-op placement, I am getting hands-on experience filing personal and corporate taxes. I maintain a duty of care to my company’s clients who trust me with their sensitive personal information, and more importantly their money! I feel this is a huge sense of responsibility that I take very seriously, and l will carry this sentiment with me as your VP of operations.
Another key improvement I would ensure is TMSU operations with increased efficiency. This will require careful planning and paying attention to areas that could be improved.
For TMU’s Literary Salon, where I serve as the finance manager, I also take part in the organization of our events and collaborations. I help ensure that the events are properly staffed and the flow of the events run smoothly.
Leadership roles are not daunting to me, for the non-profit group Swab The World, I have been serving as Co-President. I run a team of fellow volunteers to perform outreach to meet club objectives.
Because of my involvement with student groups, I see first hand how slow process times hurt our community.
A vote for me comes with a proven track record of leadership, accuracy, efficiency, and transparency. Justice for the TMSU!
