Undergraduate Tutor
Harrison Weiss

I am a third-year student at Bentley University majoring in Computer Information Systems. My strengths include the ability to learn and understand a large amount of new information in a short period and having the drive to complete challenging projects. At Bentley, I am involved with Undergraduate Orientation, Student Government, and the CIS Sandbox Learning Center. As a tutor in the CIS Sandbox, I hone my computing skills and technology knowledge every day in helping students complete projects for their computer science courses. I also demonstrate the business applications of new technologies, including virtual reality and my Java and Python programming projects, to the Bentley Board of Trustees at Open House events. I love to problem solve and gather and interpret information, so I am looking for a career in technology where I can use computers to find practical solutions.
