Bio

As someone who enjoys both creating, and solving a challenging problem, software engineering is my perfect job. This field offers the oportunity for both, as well as the chance to make the world a better place, by solving the problems we as humans face every day.

Accessibility in particular is an area in which technology can make huge quality of life improvements. Whether this is providing better TTS services for the blind, voice control for those who are manually impaired, or providing organizational tools for those who battle ADD (like myself), software can go a long way towards making the world more accessible for all.

As graduation approches, I hope to soon find employment with a tech company which is innovating for a better future, and to continue learning, even after my formal education is complete.
