About

I am Sanjana Khan Shammi, currently pursuing my Master's in Artificial Intelligence at Memorial University. With a background in software engineering and IoT product management, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and communication skills to my role as the Executive Director of Communications at the Graduate Students' Union (GSU). This experience has prepared me to enhance our communication strategies and better serve our diverse student body. My plan focuses on fostering a transparent and inclusive environment where every voice is heard.

My vision is to create a cohesive and transparent communication framework within the GSU that fosters inclusivity, engagement, and innovation. I aim to leverage modern technology to streamline information dissemination and ensure every graduate student feels heard and connected. Together, we will build a vibrant and supportive community that thrives on collaboration and shared goals.

By combining my technical background with a passion for clear and effective communication, I am dedicated to transforming the way we connect and engage as a student body. I look forward to working with all of you to create a more connected, informed, and empowered graduate student community.
