My interests include skiing, tennis, debate, and frogs! My favorite movie is The Usual Suspects, and my favorite color is green.

Pronunciation

Favorite Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was the minesweeper demonstration. I used to play the game frequently when I was younger, so it was very cool to see the code behind the program. It was also interesting to see just how complex such a simple game was to create and how matrices were used for the program.
