About
My name is Maurice Wright, and I have recently graduated Blue Springs South High School with great success in academics. I achieved a cumulative 4.0 GPA while taking courses such as AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, AP Physics, AP Computer Science and College Writing. This has allowed me to pursue a degree in Software Engineering and minor in Computer Science and Cybersecurity at University of Central Missouri. In my freshman year, I continued this perfect GPA and joined the National Society of Collegiate Scholars and Honors Society. I enjoy challenging myself in academics to develop a sense of self-worth and opportunity to better myself. I plan to use the hard-working skills I developed from academics to become a software engineer. Currently, I am working on becoming proficient in three programming languages: JAVA, Python, and C++. As a software engineer, I will use my knowledge to solve problems and help others.
