Jake is a 3rd year CS major who is into research and is still hesitant on whether he should pursue a Statistics/Math minor or not. He can usually be seen helping his friends with assignments while occasionally struggling to do his own. When he isn't struggling with easy Leetcode questions, he enjoys creating hip-hop beats or spending time with his friends. On most days, he stays in the common room until late at night, losing his mind over research work, classes or event planning, so don't be surprised if you see him laughing hysterically. Despite this, Jake is surprisingly well-organized, extremely friendly and always open to meeting new people, so feel free to say hi!
Check out his beats! (or not haha)

Anne is not your average Computing Science student. She doesn't follow the typical hierarchies; she dances on the edge of chaos, a lone alpha wolf amidst a sea of omega noise. She's the apex predator.
Anne doesn't seek validation or approval; she creates her own path, carving her destiny with every keystroke. Her presence is magnetic, drawing others to her like moths to a flame, yet she remains aloof, a solitary figure in the midst of it all. She's a beacon of untamed individuality.
In the midst of her dominance, there exists a secret side to Anne, hidden from the prying eyes of the world. Deep within the labyrinth of her soul, there lies a softness, a vulnerability rarely seen by others.
Despite her outward aura of strength, Anne harbors a tender heart, one that beats with compassion and empathy. Behind the walls she erects to shield herself from the chaos of life, there resides a well of emotions waiting to be discovered.
In the quiet moments between coding marathons and virtual battles, Anne finds solace in simple pleasures. A cup of hot tea, a sunset painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, the gentle purring of a digital companion - these are the moments that remind her of her humanity.
Beneath her stoic facade, Anne is not immune to the touch of loneliness. Despite her prowess in the academic world, she longs for connection, for someone who understands the complexities of her dual nature.
In the depths of her soul, Anne yearns for a kindred spirit, someone who sees beyond the alpha persona to the vulnerable soul within. Someone who accepts her, not for her achievements, but for the flawed, yet beautiful being she is.
And though she may wander the world alone, Anne holds onto the hope that someday, she'll find that connection, that elusive bond that transcends expectations and touches the very essence of her being.

Dina is a fifth-year Software Systems student who got lost on her way to campus and somehow ended up at the CSSS. Sometime during university, Dina developed a crippling gaming addiction. Due to a couple of unfortunate reasons, none of her friends approve of her choice of games, namely, League of Legends and Valorant. If you ever need to find Dina for any reason, follow the "POYO!" echoing down the hallways.

Hello all! My name is Erik, a first year computing science student who has too many hobbies for their own good. My jack-of-all-trades type character has led me to take on many interests and passions such as game development, drawing, video editing, and much more. My free time is usually spent working on personal projects, reading, and playing games with friends. Feel free to reach if you ever need anything or if you just want to play some games! I would be more than happy to meet new people, and chances are that we have some overlapping hobbies anyway. (The list only continues to grow as time passes...) :D
