Ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved creating and problem-solving. It actually started out as a passion for origami, as with a single sheet of paper, I could create anything I wanted. This later evolved into my interest in programming. I’ve always enjoyed problem-solving and programming perfectly filled this niche. I’ve always loved creating which coding also fulfilled as there were limitless possibilities. In high school, I joined the Robotics club where I coded for our team, leading us to the VEX Robotics World Championship at Dallas after winning the programming award at State. Besides that, I’ve helped my mom at her job by programming a Google Sheets document to automatically calculate the pizza she and her co-workers need to serve in the school cafeteria. It cut down accounting time from hours to mere minutes. These are just a few examples of how I have used my skills in competing but also helping those around me. I’ve chosen Computer Science as my major as I value the real world impact I can make.
