Background

I gained a passion for computer science at a very young age. I always had a creative mind and around the age of 13 I found a passion for computer science and game development, which inspired me to teach myself the basics of programming from online tutorials. In middle-school I would watch TheNewBoston on YouTube and taught myself a lot. The self-taught knowledge I gained served a purpose my freshman year of high-school where I was able to convince my AP Computer Science teacher at the time (Mrs. Powers) and my guidance counselor to take the Junior/Senior level course. I was one of the only few to have passed the AP Exam out of the collection of students, mainly Juniors and Seniors taking the course, which was a huge accomplishment for me as I was only a Freshman. I exceeded in the class, and by the time I was a Junior in high-school I knew I wanted to pursue my passion for computer science and engineering so I moved down to Florida to obtain my Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering at Florida Atlantic University.

My hobbies currently consist of drone photography, videography, robotics, web development, and archery
