Chlo Spinks was the omnipresent Social Sec for both Oxford and Oxford Brookes Universities during her 2018-2022 Business and Marketing Management degree.

She is known for trailblazing such events as Drink Talk Learn (DTL), Who Posted That, and Jungle Quiz, and alternative quiz structures such as Music Stem Addition, Movie Movie Mashup, Uneducated Guess, and many more.

Background

Growing up Jewish in London, Chlo was overly involved and enthusiastic from a young age. Running Jewish summer camps for over 8 years, having a nationally recognised online presence, and auditioning for record labels created a concoction of a woman with safeguarding training, a belief that with enough determination you can achieve anything, and the enthusiasm to commit a bit too hard to the bit.

Chlo is also a music writer for magazines such as Gigwise and RIOT and is always open for commissions.

Quiz career

Chlo has played both for Oxford and against them with Oxford Brookes. Notable highlights include playing on Oxford's committee team during varsity, helping them to secure the win, achieving a second bracket place at BSQC with Brookes, and consistently first lining Pride and Prejudice. Pub Quiz achievements include multiple wins at the Gardeners Arms and Big Society.

As the Social Sec of both Oxford and Oxford Brookes Chlo focussed on bringing them together for events such as Drink Talk Learn (DTL) and Jungle Quiz. This has notably created memorable moments such as Mehmet Tatoğlu wrestling a catgirl maid and the infamous metal-band-names-to-boat evening.
