About

Hi! I’m Kai Luzniak, a Computer Science student at UC Santa Cruz. I’ve worked in program management and technical roles at Boeing and Northrop Grumman, where I built internal tools, led coordination across teams, and learned that many problems aren’t technical, they’re communication problems in disguise! On campus, I’m on the exec. board for Slug Gaming, developed our website, and act as a point of contact for sponsors and partners (including Gen.G and Nvidia). I play Division I Overwatch for UCSC and stay involved in VSA/TLSA. I adapt quickly, stay communicative, and bring that energy to every team I’m part of. Feel free to connect. :)
