About me

Self-Taught Programmer • Problem‑solver • Constant learner

I love programming. My recent work spans a Java game library (physics & collision), a Raspberry‑Pi LED ambient‑light rig, and lots of small utility tools.

I also have a passion for personal finance. I love to expand my knowledge in Investing, Budgetting, Psychology behind money, as well as necessary tools such as Microsoft Excel.

Education

  • Mt. Hood Community College (Computer Science)
    Sept. 2023 – Sept. 2024

    Studied topics such as C++, data structures and algorithms. Most newly learned topics included integral calculus.


    Though still a current student, but not enrolled in classes anymore, I decided self teaching via online resources and coding my own projects was a more efficient method of learning.

    Studied topics such as C++, Python, Web Development, Efficient Code Practices, Git, Linux, as well as programming electronics with arduinos.
