CS Courses: Basic and Advanced C++ courses, Data Structures, Intel Assembly, OOP, Parallel Computing (MPI, CUDA, OpenMP), Software Engineering Fundamentals, Digital Systems (FPGA dev).

I'm an extremely quick learner and have never felt bored with any of my CS adventures thus far. Outside of CS work, I play tennis, golf, and have been a hobbyist/performing musician for 6 years.

I have some of the necessities for standing out (extra curricular activities and projects, leadership,...
