Elected

You shouldn't need a perfect technical background to build an incredible data science project. My vision for Project Labs is simple: an accessible space where anyone can build something exceptional. As a current mentor in Project Labs, who guided teams from their first ideas to polished showcases, I know exactly how to make that happen.

I am running for Head to elevate our curriculum and expand our industry presence. Running my own startup taught me how to lead with resourcefulness, while serving as an elected representative for over 2,000 students at school taught me how to deliver real value. In that role, I worked directly with external companies to open up exclusive internships and workshops. I know how to run these labs, and I know how to scale them.

If elected, my plan is:
Interactive and Advanced Workshops: I will transform passive lectures into highly interactive sessions. We will dive past the basics into advanced concepts, like building machine learning models from the ground up, so you truly grasp the logic behind the code.

Overcoming Technical Hurdles: Having mentored teams through the full development lifecycle, I have seen exactly where projects stall. I will streamline our technical support to ensure everyone finishes the year with a career-ready project. 

Bigger Partners, Better Prizes: I will leverage my outreach experience to secure top-tier industry sponsors, bringing in expert judges, better showcase prizes, and direct internship pipelines.
