Why support one organization in particular and not another one? It was a big dilemma. That’s how the name Union Association was created, and its objective with it: to support other organizations. Thanks to our events, we have been supporting several organizations for over a year.

Angelo (he/him)
PrEsident
My name is Angelo, I am Union Association’s president. I am not really a big TV show fan but I am passionate about certain TV shows. That means I can watch the same show at least 50 times a year. (Like Grey’s Anatomy, Sabrina & Desperate Housewives for exemple 😂). Before I created Union Association, I was wondering which organization we could support with our own. But after deliberation, it was way too hard to choose only one organization to support. Why support one organization in particular and not another one? It was a big dilemma. That’s how the name Union Association was created, and its objective with it: to support other organizations. Thanks to our virtual events, we have been supporting several organizations for over a year. Planning events just to plan events doesn’t really make sense to me so we might as well use our events’ visibility to support other organizations that need it. In the organization, I am mainly in charge of discussing with agents, handling contracts as well as our social media. For everything else (budgets for the events, announcements, event planning, etc…) I am collaborating with the organization’s vice-president (Jessica) without whom we wouldn’t have been able to do everything we have done up until now.
Jessica (she/her)
vice-president
Jessica, also called Dany depending on her mood, pure product of the 80’s her age remains a mystery, with a masters degree in communication and working in a media agency. Passionate about TV shows since forever, she was downloading episodes online and burning her first Buffy episodes when she was at school, and she keeps this show as her number one in her heart. Her favorite shows are: Buffy (as you would understand), One Tree Hill and Gilmore Girls. Don’t talk to her about other shows involving werewolves, vampires or others as she will ban you from the events (this may be false… or not). Introverted, feminist and vegetarian, she loves to travel and learn more about other cultures, but a perfect day to her is having avocado toasts at breakfast, followed by a long walk in nature and an afternoon watching Netflix with a pasta carbonara.

Marie-Alix (she/her)
TRANSLATOR / GRAPHIC DESIGNER
Hello, I’m Marie-Alix (but I prefer Marie, it’s simpler!). Passionate about art, I made it my job: I am a tattoo artist and artist ✨. I have always been inspired by what surrounds us to create something. Nature, museums, music, cinema and of course series. I have preferences for fantasy series like Sabrina, Shadow and Bone, Rings of Power… But my top 3 will always be Vikings, Peaky Blinders and The Last Kingdom! ⚔️ Series linked to history, with a (big) pinch of adventure and action! I am very grateful to be part of the team, as a graphic designer and sometimes as a translator! It’s an incredible experience surrounded by extraordinary people. Thank you for following this adventure!🫶🏼

I am Nabila, one of the translators for Union Association for a year now. Passionate about travel, I got to live in Malta, Budapest and in the United States and travel to many different European countries. English has always been my passion and I loved the little bit of conventions I was able to attend. Joining Union Association thus is a real dream come true and I am happy to be able to take part in each participant’s happiness at our events. My favorite show of all time will remain One Tree Hill.
