During my academic pursuit, I had the privilege of serving as the President of the CSSL Gen Z Chapter KDU, In this capacity, I've steered our community towards new heights and fostered a vibrant environment for IT enthusiasts.

Ltd., I continue to contribute to the dynamic world of IT, applying my knowledge and passion to drive innovation. Under my leadership at the CSSL Gen Z Chapter, we have successfully organized major events that have left a lasting impact.Working collaboratively with Computer Society of Sri Lanka board members, we had the privilege to contribute to the National IT Conference, a platform that brought together industry leaders, professionals, and students to explore and discuss the latest trends in Information Technology. Tech Talks have been a hallmark of our chapter, providing a space for meaningful discussions and insights from experts in the field. Our commitment to social responsibility is evident through various CSR projects, where we leverage technology to make a positive impact on society. The Student Symposium stands as a testament to our dedication to nurturing talent and innovation. This event provides a platform for students to showcase their skills, research, and projects, fostering a culture of collaboration and knowledge exchange. As president, I was enthusiastic about leading the CSSL Gen Z Chapter toward new horizons. My vision is to create a community that not only excels academically but also actively contributes to the evolving landscape of Information Technology. I would like to invite all IT undergraduates to join in this journey where we explore the boundless possibilities of technology, learn from each other, and make a positive impact on the world through the power of IT. Let's code the future together!
