Management

• Currently managing 3 organization repositories on Github
  1. HammerLab
  2. CAIR-CAS Medical Simulations Group
  3. King’s Sofa
• I have lead a software project for the creation of a SOFA simulation scene that was granted a patent
• Manage small groups for demonstration at New Scientist Live 2023 in ExCeL London, where our stand was voted most popular feature for second year in a row.

Leadership

• Part of the KDSA board as the FOLSM representative during the 2021-2022 academic year.
• As part of the board, we organized socials every month and conference style events throughout the whole academic year.
• As a result of this work, we won KCLSU ChangeMakers of the year 2022.
