Muriel for AAO
Hello! I’m Muriel and I am running for AAO for UCSC’s board for 2023-2024. Feel free to reach out!
Hello everyone, and a happy Saturday to you all!
I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for your participation in the UCSC elections. From attending the candidate markets to posing insightful questions at the GA, and ultimately casting your votes (resulting in the highest voter turnout in UCSC history!), your active engagement has been truly commendable. The past week and a half has been intense but incredibly memorable, and I am thrilled to have been elected as your next AAO, alongside the rest of this incredible board.
I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to all the candidates who put in their hard work and dedication during this election period. Your support has been unmatched, and I am honored to have been part of such a positive and collaborative group.
I also want to acknowledge and thank the current UC StudentCouncil board for their tireless efforts in organizing and running the events, as well as for patiently answering my numerous questions, responding at all hours of the day, and always being there when you need it.
Furthermore, I am beyond grateful for Perlei Toor, Nicole Pachano, Javier RB, Julian Lombard, Richmond, and Kate Lee for your encouragement and heartfelt endorsements!
Special thanks goes to Uxue Gantxegi for her unwavering support and friendship, from patiently listening to my stress rants to filming my content in rain or shine (or wind). I couldn’t have done it without you 🫶 Once again, thank you all for your votes and trust in me to be your future AAO.
Enjoy the bloopers :)
Hey everyone!
Final (and I really mean final) reminder about the UCSC GA tonight at 20.00 in the auditorium. Come hear from all the candidates and make an informed decision to decide who you want for next year’s UCSC! I look forward to seeing you all there and want to thank everyone who has followed along with my campaign thus far. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, and if you want to revisit my points, they can be found on my page Muriel for AAO.
Hey everyone!
Some of you may have seen me around campus in red UCU merch or awkwardly interrupting your time in Voltaire as a UCU Student Ambassador. However, today I bring you along with me on my UCU Campus Tour, AAO Edition...be sure to watch, it's only here for a limited time.
Also, be sure to come to the GA, tomorrow, 20.00, in the Auditorium to hear from me, and the other candidates before the polls open on Tuesday at 23.00!
Thank you to Uxue Gantxegi for filming with me in the pouring rain and her excellent mic holding skills and Ulysse Siros for his unwavering support :) See you on Tuesday!

Happy Sunday everyone!
Throughout this week, I've received several questions regarding the UCSC and AAOs, their roles, and functions. To provide more clarity, I'd like to offer a brief overview of the various bodies that the UCSC and the AAOs work with. Additionally, I have illustrated some of my relevant experiences that have allowed me to develop the skills necessary to excel in the role of AAO.
See you at the GA on Tuesday, April 4th, at 20.00!
