Matthew Grimaldi Email & Phone Number

Currently I am a 3rd year student at the University of Florida, working on a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I graduated from Duval Charter High School at Baymeadows in 2021 as the valedictorian of my class with an award of excellence in sciences and an AICE diploma. On top of this, I was declared Student of the Year by the Jacksonville branch of the National Exchange Club. During my time in primary school, I was also a very avid member of the Boy Scouts of America, served as the Senior Patrol Leader for my unit for one year, and earned the rank of Eagle Scout with a singular eagle palm. From my 2nd to 4th year of high school, I was also in the Joe Berg Science Seminar Series, a seminar program hosted by the University of North Florida. During high school, I was a member of the National Honor Society and would go on to join the National Society of High School Scholars upon graduation. In college I worked part-time jobs for Kumon and Pinch a Penny, the latter of which I am still employed at. I have also participated in two major game jam competitions, the Global Game Jam 2022 and GMTK 2023.
