In the Fall of 2016 my friend and I started up our own club at CSU Chico called the Mechanical Keyboard Club. In that club we went over all the steps to manufacturing your own mechanical keyboard. After attending all the meetups and workshops, students that participated actually get to make and take home their own mechanical keyboard at the end of each semester! In our first semester we pulled 30+ students into our club and provided the best learning experience for those looking to peek an interest in mechanical keyboards. We have produced over 100 unique custom keyboards across all the students who participated in the club over the last 3 years the club lasted.It was a phenomenal learning opportunity to make something from nothing, create a community, and enrich the lives of those willing to share an interest in something.

Provided help to all 20,000 students, teachers, and staff experiencing difficulties with accessing technological, campus resources.Worked with the Mac repair specialist to further my knowledge of computer components beyond building custom PCs.
