Hello hacklab Team,</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
I'm writing today because I am actively seeking a full-time role, and a makerspace is pretty much my natural habitat. I'm a recent (August 2025) graduate from McMaster's M.Eng. Design program and have been following the work you do at hacklab with a lot of
interest.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
I’m not just a fan of maker culture; I’ve lived and breathed it.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
Back in India, I founded and ran jumakerspace, building it from an idea into a thriving community hub. Since moving to Canada, I've been an active member of the Thode Makerspace at McMaster, so I have a good feel for the day-to-day operations and what makes
a space successful.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
My real passion is getting people to connect and create. I have experience developing and leading workshops that get users excited and comfortable with new tech. I've also coordinated maker faires and other promotional events to build community and bring new
people through the door.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
I bring a diverse toolkit and a scrappy, startup mindset to the table. On the technical side, I'm comfortable across the stack: software development, AI and LLMs (like ChatGPT and Claude), hardware/PCB design, and, of course, 3D printing.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
Just as importantly, I understand the operational side—from developing SOPs and managing users to ensuring the space is safe, inclusive, and running smoothly.</div>
<div style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_MSFontService, -apple-system, Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;" dir="auto">
I am available for a full-time role immediately and would love the chance to talk about how I could contribute to your team.</div>

Thanks,</div>
