My name is Marcus Glover, and I enjoy the thrill of programming. I view programming as a positive outlet to take an idea from conception and create something tangible to be released into the world. By doing so, I feel as though I can contribute to the improvement of someone's day or even their quality of life. Growing up, I picked up quite a few qualities and skills from extracurricular activities such as discipline from playing many sports and determination from learning how to play instruments. However, one quality that sticks out to me is the fascination I have always held with games I have played, both digital and physical.During my early years of high school, I was formally introduced to the world of programming, and that was around the time I was still trying to figure out what to do in life. I eventually decided that I wanted to pursue the gaming industry. I see games as a way for people to enter into another world, another life, or another reality which can help brighten peoples' moods or days. This concept, although, can be applied to programming, in general, as it can be a tremendous challenge to pull it off. That challenge is what gives me the thrill of programming.
