About Me:

I am a recent computer science graduate from Rutgers University.  I have been programming for five years at the time of this writing.  I intend to use the technical knowledge I have developed to help shape and change the world as we know it today. With my problem-solving abilities, I am looking for an opportunity with an organization that provides a challenging and rewarding environment in information technology and software/web development.  Fun fact: I am a Nintendo enthusiast and an artist who has been drawing from a young age.  Currently, I am working on my own fanfiction Smash Universe.
