Who

I am a Computer Engineering student at Seattle University who loves all things about computers. When I am not on studying (rarely) I am playing games, or watching anime, or going to class. I used to be an active member in one of the largest programming communities, Hack Club and even wrote a workshop. Other than that, I love volunteering for various programming communities and am currently helping out with my local IEEE club. Personally, I love to work on my Homelab and learn new technologies. Currently I am programming whatever piques my interest while also making a few other programming projects along the way. Overall, I just love making the world a better place and having fun while doing so.

  • XKCD.Net a simple C# library that allows you to get information about XKCD comics instead of having to deal with the pesky API. It also comes fully loaded with tests so the project never breaks!
