About Me

Hi everyone! I’m Giulia, and I’m so excited to be serving as your VP Student Affairs this year! This will be my third year on the MSS. I started out on both the Athletics & Wellness and Events Subcommittees, then took on the role of Events Director last year, and now I’m excited to continue my MSS journey in Student Affairs!

I’m most excited for all the fun events we have planned and, most importantly, for the opportunity to make a positive impact on our students. I hope to help create an environment where everyone feels welcomed, supported, and connected to the Mac Sci community!

You can most likely find me running around BSB! Between TAing and working in a lab based in GSB/BSB, I’m pretty much always somewhere in the area. Feel free to say hi if you see me around!


Goals

1. Increase awareness of the MSS and its resources by using events and student engagement opportunities to better communicate what the MSS does and how it supports Mac Sci students.

2. Plan events with intention by establishing a clear purpose, goal, and desired outcome for each event to ensure that every initiative provides meaningful value to students.

3. Support well-planned events that are engaging, accessible, and impactful.

Projects

1. Plan the first ever McMaster Science Society Day.

2. Develop opportunities throughout the year to better communicate what the MSS does, the resources available to students, and how students can get involved.

3. Integrate the Sciclone team into the MSS and our events.

Reasons to Contact Me

1. You have a question, concern, or suggestion regarding student life, wellness, or the overall student experience within Mac Sci.

2. Share feedback or ideas on how the MSS can better support students and foster a welcoming and inclusive Mac Sci community.

3. You have campus food recommendations, that I can spend the last of my meal card on!
