PERSONAL PROFILE
Well-rounded computer scientist with exceptional interpersonal and customer service skills, familiar with full-development life cycle and agile methodologies. I will be obtaining my BS in Computer Science May 2019, with aspirations of pursuing a software engineering career path where I can shadow experts to leverage my current skill set.
Last Fall of 2018 I was a part of a 4-man team representing Langston University in the Kansas City Federal Reserve Code-A-Thon. We received the University Champions Award for creating a Java based Android Application that automated the process of clocking in and out of work. My role was to implement the geofence using the Google Maps API for the user to enter and exit. During homecoming week with only 72 hours to complete this project it was a great experience exercising discipline to meet strict deadlines while collaborating in a team of students on various skill levels.
