My name is Firdaus, and I am a second-year Life Sciences student, thrilled to serve another year on ASSU. I look forward to advocating for students during meetings with the Office of the Dean, as well as helping students during my office hours. In my free time, you can catch me playing chess and board games at Morrison Hall, reading Stephen King, playing soccer, and hosting events at University College!

Daisy Smith, Executive
Hi everyone! My name is Daisy and I’m a 4th year student studying anthropology and religion, meaning you can always find me reading about religions and mythos both for school and for fun. You can usually find me running late to class or getting lost in the basement of the UC building, though I’m also known to be drawn to student-run spaces across campus. When I’m not on campus, I am either trying to find the best and cheapest restaurants or falling down wiki rabbit holes, and love to take suggestions on either subject!
I’m very excited to be able to work on ASSU this year and hopefully get to know many of you and represent and address your concerns! I hope in my time I can make the ASSU more accessible and responsive to students and student needs. If you have any questions or ideas on how you think this should happen, I’d love to hear from you at daisy@assu.ca or reach out to me on Instagram at daisy.e.smith!
Sophia Lopez, Executive
I’m Sophia and I am a 3rd year Life Sciences student specializing Human Biology: Health & Disease with a minor in Physiology. I’m honoured to represent Arts and Science students and serve as one of your ASSU Executives this year. I look forward to addressing student concerns, as well as making academic and extracurricular opportunities more accessible to students. When I’m on campus, you can usually catch me at Robarts library or the MS building studying (mostly chilling) before my next class.
If you have any questions, concerns, or would like to chat, feel free to drop by the ASSU office at SS 1068 or email me at sophia@assu.ca. I look forward to meeting you all!”
