At a young age I found myself in awe of the amazing potential of the human brain. I've become captivated by the stunning efforts of Artificial Intelligence to mimic this miracle of processing. Studying Computer Engineering has caused me to become endlessly excited to continue on to a professional career specializing in Intelligent Robotics and Machine Learning.After graduating from the University of Minnesota, I have continued studying independently by reading textbooks, tackling small projects, and keeping my skills sharp with the competitive data science world of Kaggle. In the future, I intend to enroll in a graduate school program to complete a formal higher education curriculum in artificial intelligence and machine learning. Throughout my life, scouting has been a joyous part of the journey and it continues to be so today. I work part-time for the local council of the Boy Scouts of America as a program coordinator, and I'm delighted on occasion to employ my programming and data science skills to help improve our scouting and community programs. The feeling of making an impact on developing youth never stops fueling that desire to work harder for others, and the countless memories that have come from this opportunity have defined many of the best and most rewarding moments I never could have imagined living otherwise.
