The Committee

President

Jacintha Sugnaseelan

Hi! I’m Jacintha, a third year DPhil student in Developmental Biology and a proud Hildabeast. I love dancing! I do various types of dances, but am addicted to SALSA. It’s a good and fun way to de-stress from work, and meet new people. I’m also on our fabulous OU Salsa Team, and enjoying every single minute dancing!!!

Vice-President

Alvar Kangur

Hola! I’m Alvar, 2nd year DPhil student in Economics, a Pembrokian and an Estonian. When for the first time in my life I saw people dancing salsa, I was deeply impressed. The way they moved, how all the combinations came together… it all seemed so mystical. Now I can close my eyes and simply improvise on the dance floor. On which side do you want to be?

Secretary

Joanna Davies

Heyloooo! I'm Jo and I'm a DPhil student at Worcester working on Statistical Genetics (when I'm not dancing!). I was introduced to salsa by a friend last year and haven't stopped since. Salsa is just awesome and I am firmly addicted! I hope you enjoy it too!

Treasurer

Ashleigh Dumas

I am a first year Psychologist from Worcester. I began Salsa when I came to Oxford and can't get enough of it now!

IT Officer

Héctor Pérez-Urbina

!Qué onda! I'm Héctor, I'm a 2nd year DPhil student at St John's working on Computer Science. Salsa has always been part of my life (I'm Mexican!), I think it's a great way to relax, do some exercise and get to know fun people!

Team Captain

Cyrus Suntook

Hi! I'm Cyrus, a 2nd year Maths and Philosophy student at St Peter's. I somehow managed to become team captain after doing salsa for only a year and have enjoyed every minute of it. If you're even slightly interested, drag a couple of friends along and give it a try - you won't regret it! If anyone has any questions about the team, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Publicity Officer

Elle Graham-Dixon

Hi! I'm Elle and I'm a second year Art Historian in St. Peter's. I like to draw, paint and, of course, dance salsa!
