ACES Committee 2022

President

Amandi Peiris

Amandi decided to join ACES in her first year to delve into the Chemical Engineering community. She was the social media officer for 2020/2021, connecting students and professionals throughout the COVID-19 lockdowns.
As President, Amandi aspires to be part of the ACES legacy whilst helping to develop the club on its’ path to greatness. Her end-state vision is to provide prospective and present Chemical Engineering students at RMIT opportunities to connect with the industry. Other than ACES, Amandi's determined to give back to her chemical engineering community by being a committee member at the Joint Victorian Chemical Engineering Committee, an affiliation between IChemE and Engineers Australia to provide professional development for students and professionals across the state. During her downtime, she enjoys experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen and reading novels.

Vice-President

Sabrina Yap Utama

Sabrina has attended ACES activities since her first year and she was the ACES Professional Director for 2020/2021. Seeing how ACES has helped her gain networks and meet fellow students, she decided to continue as Vice President to be more involved herself. As the Vice President, her goal is to help fellow chemical engineering students here at RMIT to be more exposed to real engineering concepts through various professional events and build their own network bubbles. Outside of ACES, Sabrina has been involved in a lot of organizations such as PPIA, an Indonesian non-profit community, and has done several summer internships throughout her university years.
