Mini-Biography: ============== --> Where did you grow up? What was your academic path? I grew up in Lakewood down in SoCal. Went to a high school. Was convinced there to pursue fields that didn't interest me. Changed my major to CS my first year (think I made the right choice). --> How much programming have you done (and what languages)? I’m mostly experienced with C and then Python. Lately, I've also been doing some work in C++. Despite knowing others, I'd have to say these are my three favorite languages to use (yes, even C/C++) . I started programming in college. --> What are your hobbies? I like messing around a lot with my computer, swimming, biking, running, pokemon battling. --> What are some of your talents and skills? Procrastinating --> Have you done anything remarkable? Has anything really memorable happened to you? I climbed Mt Whitney recently, biked around the entire bay in a day (~186 miles), went on bike trips from Berkeley to LA, and Berkeley to Portland. --> What commitments will be consuming your cycles this term? Assisting in 2 research labs, teaching, taking 3 courses (machine learning, economics & psychology, real estate), and training for triathlons in the time left over.
