EXECUTIVE POSITIONS
First-Year Representative
Liz Sullivan (she/her/hers)
|
Hi everyone! My name is Liz, and I am running to be the first-year representative on MUSSA for this school year. To give a bit of background, I am a first-year student within the Combined Degree Program, and hope to be the voice of MMSt and CDP students alike. At my previous school I was involved in various committees and groups that planned events, assisted new students with adjusting to school life, and advising students when they had questions or concerns. In the short amount of time I've been at U of T I have already seen the care and commitment MUSSA has for the wellbeing of the MMSt and CDP students, and I hope to join them in making sure you get the most out of the program while you're here. My inbox will always be open, and I hope to work with all of you to make this year the best it can be!

Social Assistant
Panni Ajtony (she/her/hers)
|
Hi everyone! There’s a chance you don’t know me – yet, but my name is Panni (she/her) and I’m an international first-year MMSt student. I’m very excited to run for the Social Assistant position, both because I’m interested in getting into programming within the museum world and because I’ve had some great experiences working in event planning in the past. So far, I’ve been involved in the organization of an urban cultural festival, a university arts conference, and several theatre events. While I’m very new to Toronto and Canada, I can’t wait to experience all it has to offer, and it’d be even better if I could do it with you all during events I get to plan for you with MUSSA. :)

Ruth Bryce (she/her/hers)
|
My name is Ruth Bryce, I am a first year MMST student. I am running for social assistant because I love getting to meet others in the program and want to help create fun events for us to be able to do so! I have experience planning socials, serving as the social and formal coordinator for my student association and being on the social committee during my undergrad. I have so many ideas for different socials like museum trips, game nights and hopefully an end-of-year celebration! I look forward to hearing from students what kinds of socials they want to see this year as well!

Social Media Assistant
Anna Benko (she/her/hers)
|
Hello everyone! If I have not gotten a chance to meet you yet, my name is Anna Benko (she/her), and I am running for MUSSA’s Social Media Assistant. A little bit about myself, I am a first-year MMst student originally from Calgary, Alberta. Through my undergraduate degree and past employment, I have gained experience planning, creating, and implementing social media content for events and campaigns. I have also developed a love for designing infographics to make information engaging and memorable. I look forward to the potential of continuing to build these skills if elected and being able to help make sure the information you need is where you need it when you need it.

COMMITTEE POSITIONS
Alumni Association Representative
Austin Grant (he/him/his)
|
Hey everyone, I'm Austin and I am running for the Alumni Association Representative on MUSSA. I am a second year MMSt student and a current member of MUSSA, also serving as the Programs Commitee Representative. I am eager to become much more involved in the program in my final year and establish meaningful connections with the iSchool community. I feel holding the Alumni Association position would allow me to do so, and help me represent my fellow students and connect with those who have already completed the program.
