Hi, everyone! I’m Lea, a 4th year Industrial Engineering student at PUP Sta. Mesa. Fun fact: I’m really bad at dancing (the kind of bad that turned every MAPEH performance in high school into a survival challenge).

As a groupmate, I’m a solid team player who loves tossing in ideas to help us reach our goals faster. I may not be the best leader, but I always make sure I’m pulling my weight. My strength? Definitely analyzing.

Great Day, everyone! I am Kai, a 2nd-year student currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a specialization in Mobile and Web Applications. A fun fact about me that I can tell is that even though I felt tired or not feeling so well to do any school work or other things, when I get ahold of myself to start on it, I can’t stop myself from doing it until I can finish it, and to add also, I really love cats.

And for the topic of how I work as a groupmate, I would say that I have the courage to communicate my thoughts and always make sure to help or keep my team members informed and involved in all decisions without making them feel like a burden. I am also very organized and efficient, making sure that tasks are completed on time and to the best of my ability. My strengths are in problem-solving and critical thinking, which allow me to approach tasks with a creative and strategic mindset. I am also adaptable and able to work well under pressure. I am mostly free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and weekends.

Hi, I’m Yosh, currently taking my MBA. A fun fact about me is that I recently joined a trail run but ended up walking most of it—still proud I finished!

Hi, I’m Jam! A 4th year Computer Science Major in Web Science student at Adamson University. Fun fact, I am an amateur drummer (which I was not able to continue lol).

In most of group projects, I initiate to start tasks or simply meet with the group to assess ourselves and our goals as a team. I value transparency, accountability, empathy, and communication in every set-up that I have encountered. I like to think of myself as an easy-going person, but firm whenever there’s a task at hand.

I like to work during weekdays especially at night (graveyard shift lol). I value rest and slow paced tasks during weekends.

Good day everyone! I’m Criselda but you can call me Isel or Crisel for short. I’m in my 3rd year in BS Statistics program at RTU Mandaluyong. When I’m not crunching numbers you’ll probably find me in a KTV with my friends or painting alone in my room (i’m not that good tho huhu :sweat_smile: ).

As a groupmate, I am very collaborative, reliable and proactive. I like to organize stuff and tasks clearly for maximum productivity but still make sure that everyone is on the same page to achieve group goals. I actually enjoy data analysis since as a Statistics student, we handle a lot of data. I also enjoy the basics of data visualizing since I’m still trying to learn the advance methods. As of the moment, my interest is in research and problem-solving.

I prefer to work on Monday-Thursday from 8pm-12am.

Nice to meet you everyone! Thank you <3

Hello everyone! I am Jedi Santos, currently a 5th year student taking BS Accountancy, Minor in Organizations and Social Systems Development at De La Salle University. A fun fact about me is that I am a singer-songwriter! I love writing songs about love, faith, and everything in between.

If I were to be your groupmate, I can contribute best in synthesizing ideas of the group. I am a good listener, so I tend to strategize how the group can materialize its ideas to its best potential. My preferred schedule for working is Thursday and Friday afternoon (3:00 PM - 6:00 PM), or late evenings (9:00 PM onwards), since I am in my thesis term. Looking forward to collaborating with you!

**Hi, everyone! I’m probably the most senior one here. :sweat_smile:

I’m Queenie Diaz, but you may call me Nikki. I’m a soon-to-be M.A. Psychology graduate at UST.**

Fun Facts: I have 18+ years of experience in marketing communication, 10 years of which as a leader (CMO/Head of Marketing/Global Marketing Manager), mostly for companies in the U.S. and Australia. I also have a total of seven years of experience as an educator (college professor, etc.). I’ve had various small businesses ever since I was young (Master Siomai franchise, etc.) and was even a finalist of a global entrepreneurship competition. Lastly, I’ve completed studies in Ateneo de Manila University, University of the Philippines - Diliman, and University of Santo Tomas. At this point in my life, I want to use my skills and experiences to help in the development sector.

Not sure if I can be a good groupmate (since I work nightshift) so I’ll skip that part for now…

May God bless us all!
