I do, and that's why I've accepted to have my candidacy for President be put up for vote in early 2011. As the largest alumni base outside the US, the Wharton Club of the UK has approximately 1500 alumni here from an amazing variety of countries, and diversity of backgrounds. I am inspired by you, and I hope to be of service as the President of this exclusive Club. I hope that together we can build a bigger and better Wharton in the UK! I invite you to meet other alumni, to reach out to other alumni, and to get involved!

My Vision for the Club is to be the best Alumni Club from Wharton worldwide.

We want to achieve that through our Mission, which encompasses three main pillars:

(1) to be an efficient tool and resource for Alumni in the UK, providing you with a platform for personal and professional growth through value-added events and services;

(2) to represent the Wharton School in the UK, and to support all their activities here, including Admissions, Career Services, Fundraising and Official Events; and

(3) to help strengthen the Wharton brand in the UK.

I hope you will share those values with me, and formally support us by joining the Club. We are here for you, we are here because of you. It costs less than 10p a day to become a Club Member!

I'm very proud to have a full team of Alumni fully engaged in our cause: we have a team of about 30 people on our Board, the Committee and Volunteers, all working very hard for you and we encourage you to reach out to them with ideas, suggestions and feedback.

If you want to get involved, please reach out - we are always looking for bright Whartonites on our team!

Your President
