Victoria Murphy
President
Personal info
A jack of all trades and a master of none! I was born in England but have lived in Singapore, Japan and most recently in the beautiful land of Suomi. Currently I'm studying Education and devoting my life to thesis writing. However this is really just a distraction from my real passion: board games.

Frankie Robertson
Vice President
Personal info
I'm an student on the WISE MSc at the IT department here at JYU. I've lived in Jyväskylä for about a year before starting my studies so I'm part ex-pat, part international student. I love travelling and the discovery of new places and ideas that comes with it (my two favourite places I've visited would be Georgetown in Malaysia and Sarajevo in Bosnia). Come say "hi" at a hang-out!

Saga Pardede
Secretary
Personal info
Hey ! I’m Saga, half Scottish and half Indonesian. I believe that today is the day you make your mistakes, but you carry the beauty with you. Being in Jyväskylä doing my Master’s in Education has brought me a lot of new experiences from meeting the rainbow of people, and based on these interactions and dialogue I feel is central to fostering critical consciousness. My involvement in IDESCO is another part of a synergistic process of dialoguing with the community I am living in, as I believe that communication should be based on action and partnership that is elastic. I love being outdoors and asking questions to and about the world. The smile that you wear, the things that matter and the people that you love are the key to blue skies of happiness. Don’t silence yourself :-)

I'm an Education student traveling the world and perfecting my craft. Right now I'm finishing my Master's before setting myself adrift again. As for my secret weapon, well, that's still a secret. For now.
