Yes. I’m very connected at UW. I’m involved in tech and career focused communities, regularly attend campus events, and have strong peer networks through classes, internships, and student organizations. I’m also comfortable talking to new people and promoting opportunities that can help students daily

During my internships and campus involvement, I’ve helped drive engagement by making technical tools feel approachable. For example, I worked on AI-based tools that employees actually adopted because I focused on explaining the “why” and real-life value, not just features. On campus, I’m active in student networks and career communities, and I naturally share opportunities, apps, and events with freinds especially when I genuinely believe they’re useful. I’ve learned that authenticity converts better than over-selling.

I’d make it feel less like an app and more like a campus hack. As a UW student, I know everyone loves free food, perks, and feeling in the know so I’d show how Class Chat actually makes showing up to class or events more rewarding. I’d promote it through group chats, student orgs, and casual conversations, and post quick, relatable content showing real rewards people are earning. When students see their friends benefiting, adoption becomes natural.
