infosci major + developer + music lover
Hi there! I'm a student + developer majoring in Information
Science at University of Maryland, College Park at Universities
of Shady Grove. My genuine interest in software development and
coding blossomed in fall 2023, and I have successfully completed
capstone projects since then that have allowed me immerse myself
in various programming languages. Apart from coding, I have a
love for music and animals. Explore my site and feel free to
