Design Engineering: Makeathon Manager

I have helped deliver the 2026 IC Makeathon and Hackathon — which means I’ve seen it all: the brilliant ideas, the last-minute soldering, the missing motors, and the “why is the printer not working” moments. I know what happens behind the scenes, and more importantly, how to keep it all running.


To me, a great Makeathon isn’t chaos — it’s controlled ambition. Clear plans, the right tools in the right place, and leadership that stays calm when things get intense. When the logistics work, creativity flows.


I’m running because I genuinely enjoy building these environments. If elected, I’ll bring energy, experience, and just enough organisation to make sure the only thing teams need to stress about is how to win.
