★ About Me ★
I'm a senior at the College of Charleston with a major in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics. I had some free time this year to take a lower-level computer science class just for fun and to fill credit hours, and Electronic Publishing and Design was definitely the most enjoyable of my classes this semester. My knowledge of design in general has increased after spending the last four months using a combination of InDesign, Photoshop, and XHTML, and I've gained skills that will be applicable far beyond those applications. It will also benefit in any future computer science fields in which I participate thanks to providing me with better organization and a newfound ability to effectively showcase my creations using images and websites.
