I started coding at 10.

My dad signed me up for coding classes at 11. I did not love them immediately. That happened later.

10
Hello, world.

It barely did anything, but it was the first thing I remember writing, running, and deciding was finished.
11
Alice

In Alice, I built a small game around a random-number generator. You would spin it, get a number, and follow a different path. It was simple, but it was the first time code felt like a world I could alter.
NEXT
JavaScript, Python, then HTML5

My first JavaScript project was a website. My first actual game came in Python. HTML5 followed when I wanted more of that work to live in a browser.

My Bot

I started opening MyBot.run and changing it to understand how it worked. It was the first real project I kept returning to on my own, and it restarted an interest in coding that had faded after those early classes.

Neuroscience

I held a brain for the first time and could not get past the fact that something so small created thought, memory, movement, and everything around us.
NOW
Research, school, and UE5

I work as a clinical research coordinator while I study neuroscience and finish school. Outside that work, I am learning more Unreal Engine 5 and continuing to build.

What that looks like now.

Clinical research means participant visits, scheduling, study documentation, data, and the day-to-day work that keeps a study moving.

Away from a screen, I hike, read, and draw.
