Aspiring Software Engineer

I'm Nnamdi, a Computer Science major with an insatiable drive for building and engineering things.

I am a huge robotics nerd who likes to tinker with electronics and program stuff.

Through my time in college I have founded and managed the University's robotics club, partaken in undergraduate research, and helped grad students work on various software/hardware related issues.

I hope to be able to contribute and gain new perspectives when tackling different challenges in the future.

I am currently partaking in my Junior year of my BSc in Computer Science and seeking an internship opportunity.

Thank you for stopping by!
