Jake is a 3rd year CS major who 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 the CSSS President. On most days, he stays in the common room until late at night, losing his mind over 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.

He identifies as an Arts & Social Sciences Student due to the Linguistics side of his major and his minor in Cognitive Science too. He also lives a mere 15 minute drive or bus ride away from the Burnaby campus. If you ever run into him on campus, you might catch him trying to commit another session of CSIL isolation to push his mental limits to get the copious amounts of work done that he is required to.

Bio -
Legend has it that Liam first appeared in the unholy halls of SFU in the distant year of 2015. Now, against all odds, he has somehow managed to battle his way through the endless bureaucracy and anxiety of university life to reach his final semester.
After surviving past terms with the CSSS as First Year Rep and Exec At Large, he now inexplicably finds himself serving as a CSSS Exec once again, only proving that he is a glutton for punishment.
He is often found in his natural habitat, the Discord, where he is always willing to help answer your questions, argue with you about politics, or talk endlessly about pop-punk music. However, do not approach if you see him in real life, for he fears human contact and will endlessly fight you on why C# is objectively the best programming language.

Otherwise he's playing hockey, playing the violin at mass, cramming a semester's worth of MBB material in one sitting, or sending cute animal pictures to his girlfriend.
