I am a recent graduate of New York University in computer science and math, summa cum laude. I started programming because I saw it as a means to perform three of my strongest passions: learning, creating, and supporting others. I enjoy wearing many different hats – I am equally comfortable building web applications using JavaScript, dealing with memory management in C, making high-level design choices in my game development work, and fixing broken wiring with a soldering iron. I am at my best when I am able to infuse my work with a sense of play and am building with others who bring their own passions to what they do. I have little fear of the unknown, and will want to pick the most powerful, versatile solution to a problem, even if it means learning a new technology. I have recently discovered that I especially like working in data oriented roles. I enjoy the interdisciplinary play between crafting an interesting question, analyzing the data programmatically, and summarizing the findings in reports and visualizations. I am highly inquisitive with strong bents towards quantitative reasoning and visual design, so data science works well with my particular natural strengths. That being said, I am open to opportunities that would allow me to develop relevant skills (particularly Python) or give me the chance to advance into a similar position within a company. I would also be interested in doing work with visualizations and 3D graphics, as I`ve greatly enjoyed working with Unity, D3.js, and Processing, and would be willing to further pursue routes in that direction.
