Christian Fotang (he/him) is your University of Alberta Students' Union (UASU) President. He is in his sixth year of a Bachelor of Science degree, majoring in Biology, and minoring in Psychology. During his time working at the Students' Union, Christian has strived to build relationships across all levels of government and fight for a post-secondary education system that’s both accessible and affordable for UAlberta students.

Christian is always thinking of ways to provide opportunities for student participation in advocacy and is driven to help contribute to creating a post secondary education system that is affordable and accessible for all.

Throughout his time at the U of A, Christian has been a researcher, conducting research in atmospheric chemistry. He has also been involved in multiple student groups such as Science FUNdamentals, Friends of Medecins Sans Frontieres and worked as a line cook at Earl's on Campus. Outside of student governance, Christian is an avid podcast listener, football (soccer) fanatic, and self taught guitarist struggling to learn Norwegian. He loves walks in the rain, learning about an array of topics, sparkling water and spending time with his little sister.

If you would like to talk more about soccer, offer free Norwegian lessons or most importantly have concerns, or even ideas for how we can build on our student advocacy, you can reach out to Christian via email: christian.fotang@uasu.ca, phone: (780)-492-4241, on Instagram: @uasuexcutive and on Twitter @uasupresident
