Education is more than what you study […] it’s the journey as well. I found my current job through the end of year show where students exhibit their work.
My friends can’t believe I do architecture, it wasn’t really in my communities – it’s growing into a much more diverse industry but there’s still work to be done.

The mission of the Maker Club is simple: to create a space where students can immerse themselves in technology, not through lectures or textbooks, but through exploration and doing. We want to offer students the freedom to explore various tech domains in a fun and informal way.
