About Abia Zahir
Passionate about solving real-world problems at the intersection of technology and business. My curiosity drives me to explore how innovative tools, data, and creative strategies can be combined to create meaningful, impactful solutions. Throughout my journey, I’ve sought opportunities to bridge the gap between technical problem-solving and practical business application, whether through academic projects, leadership experiences, or volunteer initiatives. I thrive in collaborative environments with cutting-edge tools where I can learn, share ideas, and contribute to projects that make a difference. Key Highlights: President of CS Squared at VT — Rejuvenated CS Squared, restructuring its leadership model and boosting participation, transforming it into an active hub of mentoring students in coding and tech support Won Amazon IOP Hackathon Customer Impact Award — created a prototype of improved shopping experience on the Amazon.com site that would enhance customers\' experiences. Spoke at MIT Scratch Conference— Designed and presented a Scratch programming curriculum at the MIT Scratch Conference as a high school freshman, sharing methods to inspire younger students in coding
