Hi, I'm Selepe Teboho

Participated in my first international datathon, gaining hands-on experience in data analytics and problem-solving using IBM Z technologies. This was my first hackathon, so I entered without prior experience. Fortunately, some students from VUT had experience and helped us navigate the challenges. Although we faced technical difficulties on the event day when the environment stopped responding, it was an incredible learning experience.

Engaged in a global AI-focused hackathon by Microsoft, exploring practical applications of artificial intelligence. This was my third hackathon but with a different approach. We had all the resources to build the application, and our idea was solid, but we struggled with deciding what to include and what to leave out. The hackathon provided mentors and resources, though I initially hesitated to ask for help. It was a valuable lesson in leveraging available support.

Elected as Chairperson, leading the society in organizing events, fostering innovation, and building a vibrant student-driven tech community. This role has strengthened my leadership skills and passion for empowering fellow students in technology.

Participated in a national innovation challenge focused on developing impactful tech solutions through design thinking and collaborative problem-solving. This experience enhanced my ability to think creatively and work effectively in diverse teams.
