About

Student by day, builder by night. 🚀 I'm studying Financial Mathematics and Computer Science at Wilfrid Laurier University, and I started CampusWage to fix a problem I lived every pay period: working several part-time jobs and never quite knowing what my next pay cheque would be.

The story

It started with a spreadsheet that never stuck. Shifts in one place, classes in another, pay stubs that didn't add up, and a 24-hour weekly work limit for international students that was far too easy to go over.

So I built the app I wished I had. CampusWage puts every shift and class in one week, works out each pay cheque before payday, and keeps your hours in view. Built by a student, for students, one update at a time.
