What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative team environment where I can grow my technical and problem-solving skills.

I'm an aspiring software developer currently studying at Moraine Park Technical College, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA. My education has equipped me with a solid foundation in both front-end and back-end development, allowing me to build dynamic applications and independently develop games that feature complex algorithms and graphical elements.

In my recent role as a Team Member at Culver's, I honed my teamwork and customer service skills while also training new employees on safety procedures and equipment. My technical proficiency includes languages such as Java, C#, PHP, SQL, and JavaScript, along with tools like Git, .NET, and MS Visual Studio. I have also undertaken special projects, including procedural generation in Java and game development using Unity.
