Bunnaniel Neou

Hello! My name is Bunnaniel Neou and I am running to be your next off campus senator. Having a direct impact on policy decisions is important for me as I believe that change must happen through action, therefore I'm running because I want both my voice to be heard and to have a say in policy decisions. I am motivated to do my part in fostering both an accepting and understanding UCSB in which all voices are heard. I believe that there is a lot to learn from listening to opinions that differ from yours as it helps us become well rounded and open minded individuals. Leadership is a very important characteristic of my personality that I actively work on honing and strengthening and I believe that my prior leadership experience will allow me to excel at this position.
