Hey There Everyone! J
My name is Amy Brierley and I am your VP
Union Services for the 2013-2014 year! I am currently in my fourth year of the
Bachelor of Arts program here at X, working towards an Honours in Development
Studies and a Subsidiary in Political Science. I transferred to St. FX after my
first year and am a proud Bear, having spent my first year living in the Mount.
I was born in a town just outside of Manchester, England (for those who follow
British football, I’ve been a proud Manchester City fan since I was born) and immigrated
to Canada when I was three. I have lived in small town Acton, Ontario ever
since.
This will be my third year being involved
with the U. In my first year I was an environmental rep on the Mount’s House
Council and a Research Officer. In second year, I held the positions of Student
Food Resource Centre Coordinator and External Equity Advocate.
My job this year consists of managing and
overseeing the services provided by the Students’ Union. This includes the
Student Food Resource Centre, Student Advocates, X-Tutoring and Off Campus
Housing. I am also involved with the Campus Trust Health and Dental Plan. There
have been some really exciting changes to my office this year, allowing me to
be more involved with health and well-being issues on campus, including sexual
assault awareness, mental health awareness and physical health! I’m pretty
passionate about all of these issues and can’t wait to pursue some awesome
initiatives this year! If you are ever wondering how you can get involved on
campus, drop by my office and I can help you find something that speaks to your
own passion! I will also be your secondary delegate for CASA and Students Nova
Scotia. If you are ever interested in chatting about our lobbying efforts at
the provincial or federal level, drop Ben or myself a line!
On a more personal note: I am actively
involved with the Development Studies Society, Coady FX and the Model United
Nations Society on campus. My favourite group is Two Door Cinema Club but I
love mostly any type of music. I like chocolate too much for my own good, jump
at any chance to sing karaoke and love road trips. I am also a black belt in
Tae Kwon Do. I like meeting new people, and would love to chat if you ever want
to drop by my office!
Here’s to a great year!
