What I'm looking for

I am looking for an internship that offers hands-on experience in software development, a collaborative environment, and opportunities for professional growth.

As a Computer Science student at Mississippi State University, I have developed a strong foundation in programming languages such as C, C++, Java, and Python. My academic journey has equipped me with essential problem-solving skills and a keen understanding of software development principles. I am eager to apply my knowledge in a practical setting, contributing to innovative projects at a forward-thinking company.

Throughout my education, I have engaged in various projects, including a command-line bookstore application where I collaborated with peers to implement key functionalities. My experience as a Student Worker at MAFES Custer Dairy Processing Plant has further honed my ability to streamline processes and work effectively in a team environment. I am committed to continuous learning and growth in the field of software development.
