About Me
I am a currently student at James Madison University pursuing my bachelor's in Computer Science. Here I am a member of the computing honors society Upsilon Pi Epsilon. I fell in love with programming when I started in January 2022. Since then, I've been actively pursuing my goal of becomming a Software Engineer.
My programming interests lie primarily with software development, game development, and web development. Some of my other interests include writing fiction as well as reading.
My current primary project is finishing up and publishing my LeetCode Bot Project. When I am done working on that, I intend to work on creating a C command line utility as well as some plugins for ObsidianMD.
Recent Experience
Recently, I was fortunate enough to participate in the wonderful Global Career Accelerator. During my time here, I was able to pick up some certifications; namely Python Specialist, SQL Specialist, and Intercultural Skills.
