Being the FAO for the graduate student senate at UNH to represent 5 campuses financially to the board of directors of UNH, I was responsible for all the financial matters in the institution representing students from accross the campuses.
In my tenure of service to the GSS at UNH, I have been successfull in satisfying the board, students accross the campuses and the senate by making crucial decisions and managing the budget in both student friendly and institution friendly manner was a crucial task and I could not be more happier as I made a difference by planning and adding value to any revisions made to budgets that affect both students and the institution in these hard times in the middle of a pandemic.
This has been a great experience as I got to polish my leadership qualities and communication skills and the ability to speak up and answer to a lot of new people spontaneously.
