Hi, I'm Scott

I'm currently a software engineering student at Michigan State University. I'm passionate about creating innovative products that push the bounds of what is possible.

About Me

Here's a little bit about me. I'm enthusiastic about coding and always looking to improve my skills. But everyone needs a break, right? When I'm not coding, you can usually find me at the gym or hanging out with friends.

Learning

I love learning new things. I follow the tech world to learn about how the next up and coming innovation came to inception. I also like to learn about how cars are engineered. Although I've never been able to work on one, I hope to have a project car one day.

Traveling

Seeing the world is one of my life goals because it allows me to experience different cultures that are unlike anything else. Each new place I visit offers a fresh perspective, enriching my understanding of the world.

Fitness

I try my best to stay active because having a healthy body is the greatest gift you can give yourself. I enjoy playing casual sports with friends like volleyball or going to the gym to get stronger. One of the best joys are finally beating a personal record after weeks of stagnation.
