Introduction

Currently I am a sophomore Computer Engineering student. I am proud to consider myself a nerd, if you were wondering where the title of the blog comes from. There are a few different things that I am passionate about. Open Source software is one that is closely related to my major. In general, it is software that allows anyone to look through, modify, and share the code. This is really cool because it helps people work to make programs that can take advantage of existing work, without having to start from scratch. In addition it allows anyone to learn from the software, and contribute back to it to make it even better. Martial arts is also a great interest for me. For the past year and a half I have been practicing one called Cuong Nhu. It's a Vietnamese mixed martial art that was actually brought over to America at the University of Florida.My other hobby is photography. I love being in the mindset of being able to look at anything and be in wonder, and I do my best to show that with my pictures. I am still not sure exactly what I want to do with my career. What I do know though, is that I want to help people in any way I can. It makes me happy, and would help me get through hard days knowing I've made someones life better.
