President

David Joshua Delos Reyes

VP Internals

Cindy Wenceslao

I plan to continue building on the momentum that the past generations of Filosoc executive have established, by supporting the society in running events that connect local and international Filipinos to their heritage, as well as bringing awareness of our vibrant culture to the wider UNSW community. I endeavour to oversee events that cater both to those born in the Philippines, and those born here, and I hope I could be a good representative for local students. This is a really special society that really has a lot of impact - it's such an honour to have a hand in bringing people a little piece of home.

VP Externals

Publicity

Gracelle Reyes

Seeing the events that UNSW FilSoc have hosted and affiliated themselves with this year has inspired me to actively help and support the developing presence they display. I believe I can actively involve myself with promoting the publicity of this society as my goal is to reach out to our fellow Filipinos and the larger community. I hope to involve others with UNSW FiloSoc to teach and share to them our culture and language.
