I strive to be contributive, to advance the mission and objectives of our cause, and to unflaggingly progress my talents and skills. I offer a high energy level, strong analytical skills, a quick learning capability, and supreme attention to detail.After earning back-to-back certificates in computer science and software development at Red Rocks Community College (themselves augmenting my bachelor’s degree in physics), I am now taking my formal education even further by taking data science-related courses (Excel, Calculus) while the official RRCC data science program is finalized. My calling is the clear, logical expression and encoding of intellectual capital, be it a general algorithm, a mathematical calculation, or any other entity. My studies focus on object-oriented programming (Python, Java, C++, Eiffel, data structures) and include various computer technologies, namely: low-level assembly programming using the MIPS instruction set architecture, computer architecture, relational database design, SQL, front-end web technologies (HTML5, CSS3), Git version control, and Linux system administration. My work currently entails developing PapersDB, a Python GUI application to store a searchable database of downloaded, PDF scientific papers.Moreover, I also enjoy pushing my skills on my own via independent study. In addition to pre-studying for courses I will take in the near future, I am also teaching myself Eiffel, so I can later get the most out of Bertrand Meyer’s award-winning tome, Object-Oriented Software Construction. Below you will find my current reading list. For technical content I am proficient in, please see the document “Technical Content in My Toolbox” in my Featured profile section below.Avocations include working out, cooking world cuisine, playing board games, and practicing the suites for solo cello by J. S. Bach and Benjamin Britten.——————————————————————————Technical Content I Am Voraciously Internalizing:Python:Programming Python, 4th edition by LutzExcel:Microsoft Excel 365 Bible: The Comprehensive Tutorial Resource, by Alexander & KusleikaData Science:Learning Data Science: Data Wrangling, Exploration, Visualization, and Modeling with Python, by Lau, Gonzalez, & NolanMathematics:Calculus Volume 1, by OpenStaxEiffel:Touch of Class: Learning to Program Well with Objects and Contracts, by Meyer
