ISU-LFHK Executive Board 15/16
PRESIDENT

Hey everyone, my name is Anna.
Three years ago, I left my home country, Germany, to study medicine in Czech Republic. Now that I am starting my fourth year I can easily say that I don't regret my decision a single bit!
Besides my interest in medicine and ISU, I enjoy going for a run in the lovely nature of HK, going to the gym and meeting my friends whenever I have time.
The most important thing in life for me is my family and I have always felt that their support is a big contribution to my personal success and well being. Therefore, when I first joined the ISU board in my second year, my motivation was to help build a positive environment for all students. One that they could feel at home so far away from their actual families and get the support they need to be able to give their best for university. This main goal of mine hasn't changed ever since and I will contribute my very best this year to actively play a part in the positive change.

VIce-president

Hi! My name is Sofia and I am a 6th year medical student from London. My hobbies are mostly art related, especially acrylic painting (when I get time off from studies!) and recently photography, which has been inspired by my love for travel. I also enjoy watching nature documentaries, baking and spending time with family and friends.
My family is very multicultural (my mother from Guyana, South America and my father from Pakistan) so I love diversity and culture. I think this is one of the beauties of our HK community as we get to meet students from so many countries and I hope to continue encouraging this while being in the ISU.
I never had a student union when I first came to HK so I am very excited about supporting our awesome president and the rest of the team to help bring the feeling of a home away from home for us all!

sport rep

Hi! I am Mohammed Mahrouse a 2nd year Pharmacy student from Egypt, and I am the sports representative for ISU. I am a professional football freestyler. Freestyle is a way of pushing my own limits and break my physical and mental barriers which makes me reach my own goals in this sport (yes, sport). Therefore, by being your sports rep. I will be sincere by bringing justice to help is all that matters. Also, the role excites me because I love the idea of helping to develop sports with ISU's community and making HK a better district for all of us. You can always feel free to reach me anytime. Looking forward for seeing you all.

miscellaneous rep

Hello, everyone!
I am Nita, a 4th year medical student. I come from two different cultures as I was born in Thailand and grew up there for 13 years before I moved to Norway. Therefore, I know how nice it is to meet and getting to know new people from different cultures, and maybe it will make it all easier for you to settle here. I would like to unite us with the Czech students so that we will be able to greet in the hallways, meet up in spare time and share interests. Also, we might need some fresh air and get away for a little while, so trips will be arranged and you can join us and explore. All in all, ISU would love to make HK a place like home for you. It was amazing to witness how helpful ISU has been for all of us. Without them, many of us would not have known each other and there would have been empty days without events or activities to take our minds off. Now I too want to be a part in giving you another year with great experience. We hope that you will enjoy your spare time along with your studies
