Vice President Elections

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to announce that I am running for the Vice President position in SIGGRAPH for the 2008-2009 school year. Currently I am a sophomore animation major who wants to see SIGGRAPH keep going in the positive direction that it is going now. Carol, Jen, and Leah have done a really great job in starting out our club and I want to keep that excellence going next year by being the Vice President. Already I am a very active member in our group by attending meetings, workshops, and submitting work for Kinematifest. I have also taken the time to get to know all of the officers and members of the SIGGRAPH group, and I am very familiar with how the current officers work. I am excited to work very hard to make sure that our club succeeds and I will give 110 % of myself to do so.

As a leader I have had much experience running meetings and events. For the past two years I have run the very successful video game tournament that SIGGRAPH is always involved in. I have learned planning and administrative skills from being a resident assistant and student representative. I am also willing to help anyone that has questions and if I don’t know the answer I will take them to the person that would know, and I am also willing to learn and adapt myself to whatever needs this position may have.

But beyond a leader I’m also just a fun person who loves animation, photography, visual design, writing, blogging :) , and rocking out to good music. I also love to play video games and hang out with friends and I feel like I am a very easy person to get to know.

I have been looking forward to getting a chance to help SIGGRAPH become a bigger and better presence on campus. Even if I am not elected I will still work hard to see that SIGGRAPH continues in the positive direction that our current rock star officers have started.

Thank you for your time and support.
