Project Title
How did I get interested in Computer Science? I have always been interested in solving problems. I view programming as a game, in which I encounter issues but am able to come out victorious in the end. Computer Science is appealing to me because it allows me to solve puzzles as a career.
What social interests matter to me? I am very passionate about saving the environment with the help of artificial intelligence. I also feel very strongly about creating an environment where every human is able to get equal chances to receive an education.
What is my most impactful college experience? My most impactful college experience has been working with WYSE to teach engineering topics to K-12 students. I have spent 40+ hours volunteering at their workshops, and I have really enjoyed sharing my passion of engineering with other people.
These are a few of my favorite things! I love listening to music, and my favorite artist is Taylor Swift! I also enjoy drawing, singing, and sleeping.
Research Description
Biography I was born in New Jersey but moved to Pennsylvania when I was only two years old. When I turned 5, my family and I moved to Illinois. I have lived in a town called Effingham for a majority of my life. Effingham isn't a very diverse place, which is part of the reason why I chose to attend UIUC.
