About Tiff: 

I joined the university in 2019 from Telford to do BSc (Hons) Applied Zoology. I was involved with the SU when I was a student here as I was Vice Chair and Social Exec for Harper Adams Conservation Society as well as being a member of the society for all 4 years.  
My career interests include primates, reptiles, zoo keeping and conservation. I enjoy drawing, writing poetry, nature walks and baking in my free time. I also enjoy binge watching Netflix with my favorites being Friends, Bridgerton, True Crime Documentaries and David Attenborough Our Planet.  
 

Why did I run for VP? 

I re-ran for the Vice President position because I felt that 1 year in this role was not enough time to achieve everything I wanted to achieve and leave a long-lasting impact on the students here at HAU. 

Priorities: 

  • Amplifying Student Voice 

  • Night Time Safety 

  • Good Health and Wellbeing 

I love Harper because… 

Harper has a tight knit community feel, with lots of interesting people from a range of backgrounds making finding and making friends a breeze. I also love the campus environment and the social events put on by the SU as they are a great opportunity to make life long memories with friends. 

What advice would you give students this year? 

Attend as many social events and sports as possible and don’t be afraid to put yourself out there to make the most of your time at Harper. Always reach out to someone if you find yourself struggling to adapt to university life, Student Services and HASU are always here to help all students.
