Who am I?

Why I Code?

I enjoy creating solutions to problems with code. I used to be a science major, believing that I would become a doctor. The downside was that science classes focused on memorization of facts. In my sophomore year of college, I realized this was boring and I wanted to switch. In my intro level course to Java, I saw that there is a lot of freedom, there are many solutions to a problem. There is also many different programming languages, tools, and frameworks that you can learn on your own. I get to play the role of creator and build a virtual world. This was the spark to my passion for coding and computer science.
