Committee
President
Idoia WilleHola! I’m Idoia, a PhD student in chemistry researching nucleic acid structures. As BA President, I want to create an inclusive, supportive and welcoming community amongst BAs and beyond, so that everyone can feel at home here in Trinity. Together as a committee we will organise diverse events and represent your views and interests on College level. I'm here to listen to what you have to say and to speak up for you, so please do get in touch!
Treasurer
Emma UrquhartHi! I'm Emma, a 3rd year PhD student in computer science. As Treasurer, I'll be working with the other committee members to arrange the funding for many great events! My research focuses on accelerating scientific simulations on emerging computer architectures. Looking forward to meeting you all over the coming year!
Vice President
Petra FisherKia ora! I'm Petra (she/her), a PhD student in Physics researching spacecraft technology. As VP, I'm looking forward to helping create a welcoming environment for postgraduates here at Trinity and look foward to meeting you all! A large part of my job involves advocating for your needs at college meetings and with college staff members, so if you have any concerns or ideas, don't hesitate to get in touch!
Secretary
Andrei LambertCiao! I’m Andrei, and my research is on the idea of creation and creativity in late antiquity. I hope to be a friendly and efficacious face in all the dealings of the BA Soc. Importantly, I’m the one to reach out to if you’d like to advertise or circulate anything!
Catering Officer
May LevinHi! I’m May, and I’m really excited to be this year’s BA Society Catering Officer. I’m looking forward to helping make BA dinners delicious, so please always feel free to bother me with food or formal thoughts.
Computing Officer
Rachel GibianHi! I’m Rachel, a second-year PhD candidate in English focused on narratology and omniscience. I'm originally from Montréal, Canada. As the BA Society’s Computing Officer, I oversee our website, social media, weekly bulletin, and wider tech infrastructure. My overarching goal is to ensure all Trinity BAs feel connected, welcome, and heard. With that in mind, I’d love to hear from you.
Events Officer
Amory S. ZhaoHello! I am Amory, the BA ENTs officer this year. I am a third-year PhD in English, having also completed my MPhil here at Trinity College. As the former First Year Representative, I am happy to answer any question you may have about transitioning to college life. In my current role, I am hoping to host a great variety of fun, relaxing events around the college. If you have any suggestions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Ethnic & Inclusion Officer
Jacky Ganba.ethnicinclusion@trin.cam.ac.uk
Apa khabar! I’m Jacky, a first-year PhD student in Civil Engineering, specialising in geotechnics and underground structures. Being an international student, I understand how much a supportive community can mean when you’re far from home. We will make the BA Society a welcoming space where everyone can connect, make friends, and feel at home. When I’m not buried in research, you’ll probably find me playing badminton, hitting the golf course, or partying (which I firmly believe should count as a sport!).
LGBTQ+ Officer
Jody HollandHiya, I'm Jody. I'm a PhD student in Zoology, focusing on tropical forest conservation. I’m really excited to represent our LGBTQ+ students at Trinity, and organise many events and activities throughout the year. That said, I can't ignore the wider context of this role. In the UK, homophobic sentiment is growing bolder, and the state has significantly rolled back trans rights. The impacts of these changes are being felt across higher education and academia. In my position, I will work tirelessly to protect the ability of LGBTQ+ students to participate fully in college life. I'll be here to help with navigating the UK's broken trans healthcare system, provide support if you are a victim of hate or discrimination, and assist with accessing the college's support services. My DMs and email inbox are always open.
Sports Officer
Ilinca Mazureac
Hey there! My name is Ilinca, I am a second-year PhD student in Surgery/Oncology, and my research focuses on kidney cancer genomics. I love watching and playing sports, particularly football (I'm a die-hard Liverpool and Barcelona fan). As the BA Sports Officer, I handle everything sports-related, from organising watch parties for big sporting events to arranging pick-up games and fun outings like ice skating. I also manage the Trinity bike scheme and act as a liaison between students and the Trinity gym. Let me know if you have any questions or event ideas!
Welfare Officer
Leon FocksHello! I'm Leon (he/him), and I'm the Welfare Officer in the BA committee. My mission is to organise events that hopefully help create a welcoming BA community, direct you to college welfare resources if needed, and be in touch with the college about how to improve these. Apart from this, I'm a second-year PhD student in Chemistry, working on next-gen batteries. In my free time, I love to run, cycle and bake. Looking forward to many nice BA events — please always feel free to approach me if you have ideas for welfare events, if you have questions about who to contact for support from college, or just to say hi!
Women's Officer
Rosa KorpershoekHi there! I am Rosa, a second-year PhD student in Physiology where I study placental metabolism, and I am so excited to be your Women’s Officer this year. My goal this year is to create an inclusive space, where everybody feels seen, heard, and appreciated. We will have brunches, walks, and other activities together - perhaps some talks on female health? So, if you have any suggestions or things that would make you feel more at home at Trinity, always feel free to reach out! I’m excited to meet you all.
Environmental Officer
Joseph WilsonKia ora! I’m Joseph, an engineering PhD student. I help keep student spaces in college (our shared environments) healthy and good. I appreciate indoor plants, reusing things, nice spaces, and will bark at you if you leave a mess in the BA kitchen! Looking forward to meeting you all!
Academic Officer
Ramya WarrierHi there! I’m Ramya, a PhD student in cognitive neuroscience focusing on autism research. As Academic Officer of the BA Society, I work to create accessible and engaging academic support and enrichment opportunities for our members. This includes everything from bite-sized research talks and skills workshops to peer-led discussions and collaborations. I’m especially passionate about building a supportive, inclusive academic community where people feel comfortable sharing ideas and exploring new interests. If you have suggestions for events or support you would like to see, I’d love to hear from you.
