Colin James

Colin is a Computer Science major and Neuroscience minor! Outside of class, he spends his time exploring the outdoors, playing soccer, and cooking. He is planning to pursue a career in Computational Neuroscience. He was the reason we had to meet at 9pm every night!! He also really likes using exclamation points!!!!

Wesley Yang

Wesley is a Computer Science major and Digital Arts and Humanities minor. He enjoys cooking, playing new sports in his spare time, and is an avid player of the flute. He is planning to pursue a career in Data Engineering. He once committed 50,000 lines of a .txt file, making Colin delete and reclone his repo.

Vanessa Heynes

Vanessa is a Computer Science and Music major. She plays the violin and guitar. After graduation, she really wants to be employed. She is the friendliest in the group, especially to Colin (she’s not).

Arisha Khan

Arisha is a Computer Science and Statistics major with a love for algorithms, even more so for when they come to a consensus. She’s also a member of the Lovelace Club on campus and loves to cook in her spare time. Arisha is the funny one (most of the time). She scares Wesley.

Luha Yang

Luha is a Computer Science major. She likes spending her time playing piano and violin or watching Netflix shows outside of class. She is planning to pursue a career in software engineering. None of us realized she was a junior until last week.

Hanane Akeel

Hanane Akeel is a Computer Science major. Outside of class, she spends a lot of her time drawing, journaling, and reading nonfiction. She is planning to pursue a career in software engineering or as a data scientist. Her laptop always sounded like it was 10 seconds from takeoff.
