About Me

BIO

I'm a Student at Rochester Institute of Technology, currently in my Junior year for Software Engineering. I'm a quick learner and passionate about growing my knowledge and skills in my field. In my free time I enjoy hiking, rock climbing, and slacklining; one of my goals is to hike up a mountain to a rock face, climb it, and then set up a highline (here's a link for those who haven't heard of highlining: https://youtu.be/EzrI8BeOw_0)
