Hi I'm Ben, I'm a Masters student studying Economics and I'm honoured to be your MCR Treasurer. In my spare time I enjoy wine tasting, gaming, treasuring, and a sprig of coxing. Drop me a message if you have any funding related issues :)

Having greatly benefited from Emma's tight-knit community as a JCR member, Alex is our MCR Social Secretary, committed to nurturing the MCR's welcoming spirit. He looks forward to organizing themed formal dinners, pub trips, formal swaps dinners with Ellen, and more alongside the Social entertainment team to bring people together and uphold treasured traditions.

Hi! I'm Callum, and I'm in the second year of my PhD in Earth Sciences. Last year, when not out with the Icelandic volcanoes or in the lab, I really valued the MCR education events such as Grad Talks and the MCR symposium. I'm looking forward to running these this year; reach out with questions or suggestions!

Hi, I’m Cecilia—Cece for short! I’m from Canada and I’m here reading for an MPhil in History of Art. Having grown up swimming competitively, I now play on the university’s women’s first water polo team. Outside of water polo, I also enjoy lifting, cross-country skiing, and longboarding.

I am committed to ensuring that people of all levels of experience and ability feel empowered to participate in MCR sporting life. Staying active should be frictionless, fun, and social! Reach out to receive a gym induction and/or to ask any questions about sports at Emma.

Hey MCR family! I'm Allison, and I’m pursuing an MPhil in Population Health Sciences. In my free time I love to sing, cook, go on hikes (the chill ones, at least), and hang out with my pets. 

As the LGBTQ+ Officer, I hope to advocate for queer postgrads at Emma and and host lots of different events, from movie nights to volunteer days with local organizations. I love being in community with queer folks and hope to create inclusive and accessible LGBTQ+ spaces at Emma. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, concerns, ideas, or if you just want to chat!

Hi! I'm Birukti, an Ethiopian-American and a first-year MSt student in Creative Writing. I love books (of course), desserts, small gatherings, sad music, and exercise that doesn't feel like exercise.

As your international officer, I will work to advocate for your needs, organize gatherings (with food!), and help to integrate you fully into Emma and Cambridge. Message me with any inquiries, comments, suggestions, ideas, and/or random thoughts you have!

Hi! I'm Ellen, a first-year PhD student at the CRUK Cambridge Institute, combining breast cancer research with machine learning. When I'm not coding or buried in MCR tasks, you can catch me exploring new recipes or spending time in nature - on long walks whilst listening to podcasts, hiking, or rowing more recently.

As external events officer, I am committed to helping Emma students build connections across colleges through activities like formal swaps. Message me if you have any ideas or questions :)
