About Me

I am a college graduate with a bachelor's in Computer Science currently employed at Rocket Central. I started coding when I was young using LEGO robotics and discovered a passion for it. I knew once I entered highschool programming that a degree in Computer Science was for me. After college I continue to enjoy taking on side projects such as renovating my local governments website. In my free time, I enjoy snow skiing, waterskiing, playing video games, spending time with my girlfriend, and hanging out with my pup!
