In this role, I was responsible for the development of technological services contracted by various fraternities on campus. I networked with senior fellows and alumni of these organizations to guide them through the integration of our network servers, as well as partook in the creation of numerous software projects based on their organization's specific goals and needs. These fraternities have different outlooks that namely come from the visions of their sponsors that fund them, so they would often need a unique profile of requirements in order to tailor to their objectives.This challenged me to successfully collaborate technical expertise with organizational goals. In the meantime, I was responsible for planning out and executing the technical side of social events for their residents.
