Skills

I have held multiple leadership positions during my college career, ranging from ambassador to President. Each position taught me invaluable skills that have shaped my ability to engage with a team and external organizations. These experiences helped me become a stronger leader by facing challenges like mediating internal and external conflict, budget restraints, and impromptu problem-solving and adaptability.

Under my Computer Science minor and AI certificate, I have learned how to use various programming languages and software such as Python, C++, Java, MPlus, SPSS, and Processing. In addition, I have gained a foundation in Data Structures, Operating Systems, Discrete Structures, and Computer Organization.

I would say that 80% of programming is debugging. Figuring out why your code is not working properly is the most time-consuming and stressful part of a programmer's coding experience. However, I think debugging is the epitome of problem-solving. Every hair-pulling programming project I've had to spend countless hours debugging has taught me how to be an efficient problem-solver. I have learned how to tackle a daunting issue by using research and networking skills to seek help from the resources I have access to, in addition to, learning how to pick myself up again after every error message or compilation failure

I have expanded the depth of my Artificial Intelligence knowledge through the AI program at the University of Florida. Not only have I studied AI fundamentals and applications, but I have also done extensive programming coursework in various languages and software. In addition, I have studied Artificial Intelligence ethics and policy. This program gives me a sufficient understanding of the projection and future implications of Artificial Intelligence.

Engaging with cultural communities both inside and outside of my identity has taught me how to be perceptive of the world around me. Having the opportunity to interact with various cultural organizations has exposed me to beautiful traditions and languages that have allowed me to approach new situations with curiosity and open-mindedness. By understanding this world's multidimensionality, I learn how I can impact it.

Balancing various commitments during college means that I must maintain an organized lifestyle. Throughout college, I have learned efficient ways to maintain an optimal organization that allows me to be reliable and detail-oriented.  The organization skills I have developed also help me be adaptable to new situations and provide my best work to the organizations and companies I collaborate with.
