Career goal: I plan to work in multiple internships throughout my education to make connections in industry and get a better idea of what particular type of job I want. As of right now I know that I want a software development job that relates to artificial intelligence.
Graduate school interests: I plan to acquire a masters in computer science with a focus in artificial intelligence after I finish my bachelors degree.
Outside the classroom: My hobbies over the years have come together to make me who I am today. I have always been an avid reader, which has inspired in me a passion for learning. In high school, I started programming and joined the school's FTC robotics team, which led to my interest in computer science. And within the last couple of years my interest in video games and how they are made along with my programming knowledge motivated me to investigate the fascinating sub-field of artificial intelligence.
