Brief Biographical Sketch:

I have always been interested in science since I was very young. However, I realized that biology and chemistry was not for me in high school. My friend suggested I try computer science, and I fell in love with it. Computer science is all about problem solving, which I love. It can be frustrating trying to debug a program, but once you do, you feel amazing. I hope to pass on my computer science knowledge and plant the seed of a computer science future for each of my students.

In my free time I enjoy reading, listening to music, running, dancing, hanging out with friends, and watching League of Legends.

Laptop is recommended, but not required. If you are bringing a laptop please download Sublime (https://www.sublimetext.com/3). You need this as a text editor to code.
