After completion of my undergraduate degree with a double major, I dove head-first into the computer science field as a Software Engineer at Lockheed Martin. Working on the radar team with no prior knowledge, I had to quickly ramp up on both their mechanics and the software system they use. Within a short time, I was able to complete the large task of upgrading the codebase to a new operating system version. This feat launched me into my current role of maintaining and managing my own radar repository despite being relatively new to the company. I continue to perform this role to this day; always seeking new challenges, sharpening my skills, and hoping to eventually find a place I can utilize my interest in biology in tandem with my software expertise.
