Alessandro Gopal developed and enhanced the mentor discovery experience for the fullstackatbrown/project-oleep repository over two months, focusing on both UI and data integration. He built the Mentors Page and Mentor Cards UI using React and Next.js, implementing interactive hover effects, modal-based detail views, and responsive CSS styling to improve accessibility and user engagement. In April, Alessandro integrated dynamic mentor data from Cosmic JS, revamped the mentor cards with role fields and image fallbacks, and added a Mission & Vision section to the homepage. His work emphasized scalable component design, robust data management, and alignment with modern frontend development practices.
