Biography

I initially discovered computers when I was 4 and starting programming them at 6. Since then, programming has been one of my most enduring hobbies. Beyond that I enjoy playing tennis, badminton, and pool; watching Japanese anime; reading; and learning about spoken languages (as well as programming languages).

Work Objectives

During the summer I seek internships where I can utilize my strong Java coding skills. I am most interested in developing programs related to networking and software development tools. I am also looking for opportunities to become more familiar with the C# language.
