Coding has always been something I've been interested in since middle school, when I first got into game development. That interest led me to learn Python and Java in high school in AP Computer Science courses (and now C in college), as well as join clubs that allowed me to put those skills to further use. I developed software and video games with a team in a high school club that led to me really becoming interested in software development through the experiences I had developing it.I hope to become engaged in the field of software development, working on our relationship to software and creating open-source projects that help bridge the gap between hobby-level and industry-standard quality. I also have other interests in music and film, and have worked on some personal projects involving each as a part of a team.
