My background

I am a self-driven worker with an inclination for the arts. I enjoy both consuming and creating music, movies and videogames. I grew up in north Texas, attended K-12 in Fort Worth, and obtained my bachelor's degree in Computer Science at the University of Oklahoma with Special Distinction. I look forward to possibly pursuing my master's degree in the future. In my free time, you can find me working on my computer, spending time with my friends and family, playing volleyball or disc golf, or working on websites like this one.
