Mark Botros - u21448109
I'm a third-year computer science student who's really into data science, and I've got some hands-on experience with website development, databases, and a bit of AI. I've worked in the industry for a bit, and I believe that computer science can make the world a bit better, one function at a time. I'm a chill and friendly person, always down for connecting with others and sharing cool ideas. And hey, here's a computer science joke: Why do programmers always mix up Christmas and Halloween? Because Oct 31 == Dec 25!

Sarah Leigh Kilian - u21804312
I am currently a third-year student at the University of Pretoria, who also tutors. I have a passion for solving problems and the colour black (a nerdy goth if you must). I love mathematics - originally started out with BSc Applied Mathematics with CS and then decided coding was way more fun, cats and being outside. If I am not on campus, you'll find me listening to music while I study or going hard at the gym. I strive to become better as a CS student and as a person.

Inge Odendaal - u21689432
Hey there! I'm Inge, a bit of a data enthusiast, you could say. You see, I have this not-so-secret love affair with databases and data science. It's a bit like a romantic movie, only instead of chocolates and roses, I get excited about Computer Science, Statistics, and Mathematics. Wild, I know!
I'm also a bit of a people person. I once played the role of a project manager for the COS301 Mini-Project, where I was the ringleader for a group of 13 developers. Imagine that, 13 developers and 1 project manager walk into a bar... but, wait, don’t worry, we didn't break anything. We just wrote some code, solved a few problems, and maybe had a pizza or two!
So, that's me - Inge, your friendly neighbourhood data nerd.

Michael Tarr - u20537833
Hey 👋, I am Michael, a 3rd year BIS Multiemedia student. I have a passion for frontend development (and some backend as well), especially using NextJS, Typescript and TailwindCSS. On my off time, I enjoy playing video games and listening to music. If you ever find me by my laptop, most likely I have Spotify open listening to some tunes. I've been trying to come up with jokes about Star Wars but it's difficult. Sometimes they seem a bit too forced.

Gilles Teuwen - u21465772
Howdy! Gilles here, I like cool stuff. Well, computer-cool not popular-cool. I'm into all those things that make all computer nerds say "wow! That's cool!" and sometimes even non-computer nerds think they're impressive. I love going beyond scope and adding the "wow factor". That involves making things like cutom data structure visualisers, adding abount 1000 times more rows to a table than the brief asked for and, the latest buzz around the block, adding AI and machine learning to get awesome resuluts. I've built a neural network that recognises hand written letters and I'm currently learning all about transformers - no not the robots in disguise.
That's me, if you see me around, stop me and I'll tell you all about my latest project.
