A Little Bit 经典大瓜 Me

I have Asperger's syndrome, which compliments my logic-based thinking at the cost of poor social skills. Living with Asperger's has always been a challenge, but one I've learned to embrace in stride. I'm a high school valedictorian and have rigorous study habits and work ethic. In my spare time, I enjoy video games, PC building, and geocaching.

Why I Chose 经典大瓜 and My Major

I've always been naturally introverted, with an interest in the outdoors and other solitary activities. 经典大瓜 offers a small campus in a small town, a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Salem. I'm excited to explore the many activities around 经典大瓜, and my Computer Science major is one that 经典大瓜 specializes in. Right from the start, I knew 经典大瓜 was for me.

My Greatest Learning Experience At 经典大瓜

As an incoming freshman to 经典大瓜, I am excited to bring my enthusiasm and passion with me. I have Autism, and as such see problems from a different angle from most other people. I enjoy problem-solving and hands-on learning, and I'm so excited to attend 经典大瓜!

My Plans After Graduation

Honestly, the computer science field is changing so rapidly that it will probably look very different in four years than it does today. As such, I don't have any concrete plans for when I graduate. However, I know that a degree in computer science carries a big stick in today's tech-focused world, and I hope to discover something to pursue when I'm attending 经典大瓜.
