Steers the product creation ship | Makes sure Derek doesn’t mentally leave Earth too often | Educated in Machine Learning but is a tenacious business leader | Zen calm & consistency | Expert at putting things in perspective | Champion of encouraging you to be better
Don’t be fooled, she’s savage | Always early…literally always | Her cat Harry is probably more famous than you are | Crochets, screen prints, and does all other kinds of cool creative stuff that makes you question whether or not you really have any creative abilities at all…
Who needs an expert when you can have a hacker? | Good luck learning that thing as fast as he can | What’s bigger, his brain or his smile? Idk it’s hard to tell | Has somehow figured out how to get more than 24 hours out of a day, but won’t share the secret
Research Expert | Resolute and Dedicated | Anything Related to Data and Machine Learning | Expert in Narcotics & Internet Drug Slang | Great taste in books | Don’t fool yourself with the gentle smile, she’s ruthless
Some people sort of know stuff, but they just brush the top layer. Not him. He only considers that he knows something when he can rebuild the entire thing in his mind from scratch. And we’re talking like mining silicon, then building transistors, coding the Kernel then the OS to the apps and back kind of scratch
You know in Sound of Music when they sing the Do Ray Me song? It goes “Ray - a drop of golden sun” | Well, Ben is more like “Ray - a dropkick green magma flow of automating your entire existence” | And if that’s not enough, he’s basically strong enough to lift up your car with you in it and carry you away…
You know the quiet ones in the stories that turn out to be the true hero? That’s her | You’ll always see her name at the top of the charts, but she won’t brag about it | And if you’re lucky enough to see the choreographed dances that she did with her friends in college, please do share them with the rest of us…
He might be silent, but really he’s just figuring you out | Definitely gets the Sense of Humor award | Unofficially the fastest keyboardist in the office | Enjoys destroying kids at lazer tag | Oh, don’t ask what he’s getting for lunch…it’s shwarma
Ask him to draw you something, he’s really skilled at it. Especially sketching scissors | Figured out that you can keep a cactus from AZ alive in NY without watering it because it can just absorb humidity from the extremely damp air | Definitely doesn’t like the New York Rangers ice hockey team
Believes that the work our hands produce is art | Uncanny ability to conceptualize and analyze | Just because she wants to be in a quiet room with a couch rather than at her desk next to you doesn’t mean she doesn’t like you…or maybe it does
When he’s around, the conversation will never lull | He’s an up-and-coming superstar | If you want movie recommendations, he’ll give you much more than a simple Good or Bad, he’ll give you the critical elements that made him come to that opinion | But definitely don’t ask about the Fantastic Beasts series, especially the 3rd one. He shudders at just the sound of you mentioning it
She’s like an entire solar system wrapped into a single human | The gravity of her consistent positive energy will pull you into her orbit | Watch out though, because she’s an achiever and she’s constantly on the prowl to be the best | All while listening to music that’s way cooler than whatever drab leaks through your headphones
You should definitely challenge him to a game of arcade basketball, but when you do, make sure you bet all of your marbles…you’ll probably win (not!) | He really is the fastest keyboard typer | If you catch him saying 1000 words out loud in a day, buy yourself a lottery ticket, because you just had a once in a lifetime experience
Quietly competitive, but in a ruthless no holds barred willing to rip your eyes out with her teeth kind of way | She’s also a great team player, just make sure you don’t slack or she’ll let you know | That’s why she’s able to be such an effective player on like a hundred different soccer teams at once… yeah we don’t know how it’s possible either
He’s actually famous and a viral sensation for UI/UX design | If you think Derek talks fast, then you haven’t heard Anirudh when he’s excited & teaching | Kindness is too weak of a word to describe him | He doesn’t like the taste of boring
For some it’s six degrees of separation, for her it’s six degrees of connection | She’d be great at puzzles if she wasn’t so busy doing cartwheels | Casual dress code… absolutely not | If it’s not a horse show, she’s not interested | Doesn’t accept flowers, but collects Maple Leafs
Knows some of everything | Does some of everything | Wants to be the best | Occasionally wears a fancy T-shirt | Always happy, even in the middle of the night during a hackathon with no sleep | Has only one broken shoulder but can still do more than Derek
He might be quiet, but that’s just because he’s formulating how to show you that you’re wrong…but always in a kind way | There is no other human that can handle as much spice…except maybe Delaney | Might not admit it, but he relentlessly wants to win
