Education
One line left.
I'm earning a B.S. in Computer Science at the University of Maryland, with minors in Secondary Education and Asian American Studies. I graduate this December, three and a half years in.
The education side isn't just theory. I taught 60+ students across Ukraine, Taiwan, and Brazil before I ever declared the minor. And yes, the coursework included game programming, so this site was bound to happen.
