About The Author
I love to create.
Starting at around age 11 as a self-taught programmer, I created games and websites on my own from what I learned from the internet—tackling a multitude of skills, including programming, game design, art, animation, 3d modeling, and whatever else I needed to create whatever I had in mind at the time. Since then, I've been fortunate to have many incredible experiences to further flesh out my knowledge.
During middle and high school, I had the opportunity to explore the world of programming through internships and interest-based projects. Through my projects, I was able to try my hand in many different areas, from websites to games to apps and more. Through interning, I was able to see what the application of my interests looks like in a professional setting, as well as work in teams with some wonderful and talented people.
I'm still exerting my knowledge by continuing to create whenever I can. I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities where I can use the expertise I've attained over the years or try something new and learn skills to increase my creative skillset.
