Involvements

I enjoy working with people as much as I love working with technology. I have a passion for event planing and logistics, especially when it helps shape the community spirit. These roles are a fun break from engineering schoolwork, and have taught me important time management, communication, and leadership skills.

Here are some of the teams I have been involved with over the years.
