About Me

I'm a Computer Science student at Skidmore College with a passion for web development, embedded systems, and PCB design. My journey in technology began as a hobbyist, tinkering with electronics and programming microcontrollers, and has evolved into a professional pursuit of creating innovative solutions.

Currently focused on finding exciting internship opportunities in software engineering and embedded systems development, I'm trying to leverage my skills to make a meaningful impact in the world.

After finding an internship, I plan to transform InternshipQuest into a platform for helping other students find internships.
