Hello Faculty of Science,
My name is Alex Banoub, and I am a Fifth-year Biomedical Science Co-op student running to be one of the two Faculty of Science Directors under the slate AB^2 with my running partner, Amitoz Banga.
As Vice-President of Student Life for the Undergraduate Science Society of Toronto Metropolitan (USSTM), I lead a team of 11 students and manage a budget exceeding $ 38,000 to organize large-scale social events. Some of these include our Week of Welcome (Sept 2–9) and Halloween Events (Oct 28–30), which brought hundreds of students together across all programs in the Faculty of Science. Previously, I served as Finance Coordinator for the Student Life Committee, Outreach Volunteer with SciXchange, and Emergency Department Volunteer at Credit Valley Hospital.
In my final year of Undergraduate studies, I aim to ensure that the TMSU remains accountable, transparent, and effective in its support of students. My experience in student governance has shown me how large student-run organizations operate — and how critical strong leadership, communication, and fiscal responsibility are to their success.
If elected, I will work to ensure the voices of science students are heard and that the TMSU is positioned for success in the years to come. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have via email.
