About Me

I was born in Whitehorse, Canada and moved when I was a little kid to Yakutat, Alaska. I then moved from Yakutat to Haines when I was in 6th grade. I have always grown up in a small town and I have always loved the outdoors, which is why I love Portland even though Portland is not so much a small town. I am a huge fan of hiking, camping, and fishing. The reason why I chose Computer science because I have always been intrested in how computer works and how they can be used to solve problems. I first decided to play basketball in Missouri and a half a year in the Phillippines before I decied to go to Portland state and have been here ever since.
