About

I graduated from Wofford College in 2018 with a BA in Computer Science, and graduated from Wake Forest University in 2020 with a MS in Computer science. I have experience as a research assistant through two NSF opportunities at Wofford and UNC Charlotte. My experience includes cybersecurity and visualization of deep learning algorithms. Through my courses at Wofford I have learned Python, C and C++ and Java, in addition to other tools such as Git and SQL. I worked as the Department Tutor in Computer Science at Wofford during my senior year providing tutoring sessions for introductory computer science classes. I have a Data Science professional certificate from IBM. I currently work as a Data Scientist for Truist Financial.
