About the President
Hey! My name is Kevin Feng and I am serving as your 2023-2024 Badminton Club President! I am heading into my fourth year in Medical Science, specializing in Medical Bioinformatics. Born in London, I was an avid player in my school and community, competing in multiple tournaments. After being involved in the club for 3 years, the executive team and I are excited to bring tons of great ideas for competitive play and exciting socials. Don’t be afraid to say hi and hope to see you on the courts!
