About me

• Inspired by a friend in middle school making websites, I began with HTML, then quickly moved onto learning the basics of programming with Python.
• Went on to learn Typescript and other technologies regarding web development (webpack, et al.), with plugins galore to try to make the DevEx similar to what vite is today. Picked up other languages like Java through Minecraft modding.
• Went to university where I honed in on several skills and idioms, like OOP, Java, Python, Assembly, C, C++. All the way through using Typescript with tsx as a handy scripting language.
• After years of going in and out of school to work and trying to find my way in life, I finally graduated from UNO with a Bachelor's in CompSci with a minor in mathematics.
• Recently inspired by the Youtube channel Tsoding Daily and subsequently Casey Muratori's Handmade Hero, where I found my interest in C programming with the philosophy of ground-up understanding, intentful design and architecture, performance-oriented procedural code.
• Now trying to get around to work on things to show off and improve on as a developer. :)

Projects

• Capstone project - For my capstone, I worked with a lovely team for Northrop Grumman. We collaborated on creating a plugin for the Android application ATAK to geolocate devices outside the network through Bluetooth signalling.
• Leet code - A repository of leet code problems that have required local development and/or debugging across multiple platforms.
