My Journey Into Tech
My interest in tech first blossomed in early 2019, when I took an introductory Python course for fun on the educational website Udemy . Later on in 2020, the unfortunate circumstances of that fateful year offered me the opportunity to spend more time exploring my interests. With the vast amount of educational material available online, I continued learning with various foundational computer science and math courses, and the more I learned, the more I enjoyed it. Ultimately I decided to pursue a more formal CS education and begin the transition toward a new, exciting career in tech! Today, I'm midway through the Northeastern University Align MSCS program designed for students with non-technical educational backgrounds. It's been a thrilling journey so far and I look forward to continue learning and applying new skills!

Recent Projects
Secure Raspberry PI Data Transmission
Project Teammates: Francisco Proboste Cardenas, Jean Paul Mactal
In this project, I worked with a small team to create a script which continuously gathered temperature data from a sensor connected to a Raspberry PI. The data was then securely sent to a remote server through an SSL connection and written to a database.
2D Game in Java
Project Teammates: Tim Crawley, Cecilia Lopez and Ilana-Mahmea Siegel
In this project, my teammates and I created a 2D game in Java where players could shoot projectiles at a target. In addition to working on various components of the game, I also contributed an original music soundtrack. The game can be found at this GitHub Repository.
