Work And Volunteer Xp

USP Open Day Volunteer

I proudly represented the Computer Science and Information Systems department by architecting, implementing and demonstrating a serverless full-stack quote management web application.

I engaged with prospective students, explaining how frontends interact with backends and databases, and shared real-world insights on static websites vs. dynamic web applications.

I designed eye-catching flyers on popular video games and the modern technologies used to build them. I used Figma to design these flyers, blending creativity with my technical expertise.

Peer Mentor: Software Engineering

I was honored with the Outstanding PASS Leader Award for my impact as a mentor. Afshana Anzeg, my supervisor, once said, “When I walked into your session, I couldn’t tell who the leader was,” reflecting on my leadership.

I introduced Dub.co for QR codes into the PASS programme to solve the previous issue of QR codes expiring. This in turn streamlined access to online communities and increased course penetration for CS140 by ~50%.

I created engaging and interactive worksheets, making use of resources like newsprint and markers. This fostered a collaborative environment and helped the students enjoy what is typically a boring theory course.

Peer Mentor: Computer Science

I heavily collaborated in a team of three peer mentors to design and deliver coding-based worksheets, with a focus on simplifying complex programming concepts to make them accessible for first-year students.

I regularly communicated with the course coordinator to review and refine worksheets, ensuring the materials aligned with course objectives and addressing student needs.
