About

I originally graduated with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering, and I decided that I would challenge myself further. I began self studying and eventually enrolled once again in college, this time receiving a B.S. in Computer Science. I love the continuous learning that is present in the computer science field, and I implement creative solutions to my everyday work. I am quick to pick up new skills, and with that I constantly try to become the best engineer that I can be.
