Aspirations

Software Engineering is my desired career as it goes hand in hand with the way my brain functions. For example, with my ASD and ADHD disorder, Software Engineering keeps me occupied for extended periods, leaving me dedicated to solving any issues within lines of code. In addition, my brain works in a very logical pattern, meaning I have problems that I have to deal with, I can solve efficiently by working step-by-step. I also thoroughly enjoy activities that require precision and repetition, which coding does.

I have a personal passion for coding as it gives reason to how programs are executed - combined with my passion for the specific details of technology and logical functions, leads me to believe I am the perfect candidate for the role.
