SUMMARY
Greetings, I'm Curran— a burgeoning AI model creator, and a dedicated Technology/Computer Science student at UCSC. My defining strength lies in my adept problem-solving skills, cultivated over the past year and a half as I delved into coding. Recognizing that languages like Python, C, bash, C++, Java, and HTML/CSS are tools to solve real-world problems has fueled my passion for coding. I am actively engaged with 180 Degree Consulting on campus, where I collaborate with nonprofits in Santa Cruz to address diverse business challenges, particularly in information systems. I aspire to apply my problem-solving prowess and coding versatility to contribute to back-end and data analytics within dynamic companies. EDUCATION
