Just a high schooler on the east coast who wants to test his skills.

|
I doubt I will win, but I just want to see what participating feels like.

Never really knew what I wanted to do until my first day of Freshman year, when I walked into Computer Science class Period 1. Hello World in Java seemed magical to me, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I "grew up".
|
|
Since then, I've tried to learn as much as I can, as fast I can. I found myself overreaching at one point, trying to become a coding polyglot- I was trying to learn 3 or more languages at once, which did not work. So I focused on learning a few things, and learning them well.
|
|
And I got an internship at an informatics lab!

I'm pretty sure I'm cooler than Alan. I think.

I like to work with C/C++, so if you need help, I'd be happy to give you some **pointers**.

We want to make an interactive website to explain and visualize the severity of Global Warming with interactive charts of all shapes and sizes.
|
|
Obviously, we'd use d3.js for that.
|
|
Another cool idea would be a way for people to highlight the most important parts of a legal document for users to read and then some sort of game to make sure people read those sentences, at least.
