I'm a good mascot character for social media. I am well-versed in all five elements for the arcane arts. I am empathetic, patient, and good at teaching people. I will make sure people in this big beautiful game development society feel comfortable and engage actively, ensuring nobody is left behind.

I have experience with working with students and teaching, working part-time for UCL's Ants, Swarms and Robotics programme, I taught kids in secondary school programming and theory to a surprisingly advanced level, such as on PID Control, DFS/BFS, and Path finding, making learning resources and teaching in person lessons.

I also work well with teams, and learn and adapt to newer situations. I am able to rely on others, as I have done with my colleague and friend Pratik, who has helped me in many public speaking situations, especially as I was new to teaching in such a setting, when conveying lesson concepts to the kids. I am patient and re-explain more confusing concepts in a more digestible way and enthuse excitement with the more interactive and Socratic way I teach, so that the kids are also excited about the topics I teach. I bring forth an environment where questions can be asked without judgement or anxiety, and the kids are getting more confident in both answering and asking questions when they feel confused.

I hope to bring this and much more and deeper support to the good people of the game development society.
