*In what areas would you like CodePath to help you with?*
- Talked about the community aspect and how there's an awesome community and lots of students doing lots of different things so would like more help and immersion into our community
- Add certain structures that make teaching a lot more easier 
- Live coding sessions:
    - Likes the idea of having TFs run these 
    - Youtube videos are nice and sometimes easy to run with but often may be outdated and so having a live session would be awesome bc TFs could break things down more and have more updated code
    - Feels like as a TF it would give him a greater responsibility in the class which will leave an impact and make class more engaging


### Live Demo 
Applicants should present their favorite tool that they used from the previous course that they've taken with. This should be presented through slides.

* **Additional notes:

    * really enjoy that he broke down VC life cycle 
    * Super cool that he breaks down things on a high level of SWE outside of just iOS dev
    * Has very smooth transitions and clearly understands what he is presenting, his presentation seems very natural
    * like how he talks about locilization and incorpreates it into the app

* **Verdict:** Pass
