My father, who is an expert electrical engineer is the real reason for my interest in computers. He was particularly interested in circuits and electrical systems, but I was deeply influenced by his imaginative thinking and his approach to problem-solving. I remember the many hours we spent in his place of business when he would detail the complex operations of electrical parts. This is the main cause why I am interested in the digital logic that powers these systems. Eventually, I became more interested in the software that facilitated the physical components my father worked with. The ability to write code and develop programs was like unlocking a new method of electrical power. My choice to study computer science at Oregon State University was mostly influenced by this understanding, which relied in the lessons that I learned from my father.
