Ciara is a part of the NAAUC working party for 2026. Originally from Melbourne, Ciara has spent 2 years (so far!) living on campus at Yukeembruk Village, the Australian National University newest residential hall. In her time at Yukeembruk, she has been Sports Representative (2025) and President (2026). Ciara is passionate about self catered halls and new colleges, and will ensure that the NAAUC conference is beneficial to not only historic, catered halls but also representative of self catered, and newly established halls!

NAAUC’s Working Party is responsible for assisting in the execution of NAAUC’s critical programs, namely National Conference, and the Academic Program. The Working Party is also tasked with assisting the NAAUC to complete growth projects and deliver offerings where required and where possible. Under the leadership of the Vice President (Development), the Working Party will work collectively on new initiatives. The Working Party will consist of a series of Portfolio Officers, and some General Officers.
