2019-2020 UMASA Executive
|
PRESIDENT: Victoria Stagg
umasa@myumanitoba.ca Victoria began her academic career in 2012; she first attended school with the intention of completing a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology and nutrition. It was not until she took her first anthropology class as an elective that she decided to pursue a career in anthropology. Victoria joined UMASA the year after attending her first anthropology course. This is Victoria’s third year in the program and she believes that as the president she can expand the reach of UMASA within the University of Manitoba anthropology program. With more social events, UMASA can become even more saturated to help future students and graduates create better connections amongst each other for better opportunities. Victoria has one year left in her General Degree before she returns for her Honours’ Program. |

TREASURER: Danica Engen
My name is Danica Engen and I'm majoring in Anthropology (I'll be applying for the advanced program soon) with a focus on archaeology. I spent 2 years in the faculty of science before realizing my passion for archaeology and I'm hoping to go into CRM work after I graduate. I'm looking forward to working with everyone at UMASA and getting more involved in the events and activities next school year!
