Meet Zara, a third-year computer science student at the University of Waterloo who transferred from a non-technical background. Initially overwhelmed by coding, she found her passion through the introductory courses CS115 and 116, where she developed a knack for Python. Now, she's an active member of the student coding club and often gives advice to new students navigating their programming path. With dreams of starting her own tech company, Zara is committed to helping others succeed in the ever-evolving world of computer science.
