In this meeting, we held a workshop teaching our members how to build their own portfolio website!
Building your own personal portfolio website is a great way to have a record of and show off your projects, skills, and experiences.
We also created a repository in GitHub to hold the code for the website. Reach out if you want access to the repository so you can make your own website!
Come to our meeting next week to get paired with your mentor at Lawn Games (and reach out if you still want a mentor and haven't filled out the form)!

We held a collaboration with the i3 lab to learn about what it takes to create a successful startup! We heard from WPI student Jelal Gylychmuhammedov, who has won funding in many local pitch competitions for his start-up, BrailleBox.
We concluded with a pitch competition, where we had to come up with a start-up based on random items given to us. We had a lot of fun, and the winners got free i3 merch :)
