Like many students my age, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, all of my classes moved online. For the freshman Spring semester and the sophomore Fall semester, I fell into a slump and ended up failing several classes, falling a full year behind. Determined to overcome this setback, for the next several semesters I retook the failed courses and took extra classes whenever I could. In the end, my hard work paid off, as I was able to graduate on time with a GPA of roughly 3.3 out of 4 despite those difficult semesters.

As a computer science major with expertise in C, C++, and Java, I bring a dynamic blend of technical proficiency and problem-solving prowess. My passion for programming is complemented by a solid foundation in mathematics, including proficiency in linear algebra and calculus. With a relentless drive to tackle complex challenges, I am eager to leverage my skills to create innovative solutions and drive technological advancements.

I am currently seeking an entry-level software development position to which I will bring my drive and hard-working attitude, and I aim to grow alongside the company that hires me.
