I'm a final year on the MSci course, just coming back from my placement at Kainos. You may also know me from organising HackTheMidlands, or as a Student Ambassador. I look forward to seeing what this year brings as President, and don't be shy to say hi!
Treasurer
I'm Jacqui, the treasurer of CSS! My role is to manage the funds for CSS, making sure we have the ability to put on great events. When I'm not stressing out over responsibilities and deadlines, I spend a lot of my time playing RPGs and drinking iced lemon tea.
Secretary
Hiya! I'm Rhys, a second year degree apprentice and your Secretary this year. It's my job to organise and minute the meetings, as well as ensuring everyone's doing awesome. I love coding, JoJo, boba, many sports and spending time with friends. Feel free to have a chat with me whenever! โค๏ธ
Vice-President
My role is keeping everything in the society ticking along and to help out where I can in all aspects of the committee. If the President, Secretary or Treasurer can't make it, then I fill in for them in meetings. CSS members may also recognise me from many of the CSS quizzes I've written and hosted! ๐ In my spare time I like to play D&D, win at board games, and drink wine. You may also see me fencing as part of the University's Fencing Club. ๐คบ
