About Dylan

I’m Dylan, your Guild President. I have previously held roles as Secretary, Faculty of Business and Law Representative and Accessibility Officer. I also concurrently hold the role of WA State Branch President for the National Union of Students. I am a double degree Psychology and Commerce (Human Resource Management & Industrial Relations) student. I became involved with the Guild as a mechanism of delivering better outcomes for students at Curtin University and a duty to protect our education from cost increased and quality cuts.

Outside of the Guild I am a Paediatric Nurse after studying a Diploma of Nursing. I have extensive experience as a volunteer with charitable organisations and have contributed to the governance of a medium size charity in Perth prior to my involvement with the student union.

The student guild at Curtin University has a proud history of delivering for students. Regardless of whether we protesting against major University cuts or advocating for an individual student facing adversity, the Guild should be there for you.

I am proud to be leading the Student Guild and look forward to hearing from you.
