A blog is only as interesting as its author, so I think it’s important that you, whatever audience may be reading this, have some information about the guy on the soapbox. I’ll try and keep things short– consider this a quick greeting, a traditional “hello, world!” from me to you.
My name is Carter, and I currently live in Seattle, Washington. I didn’t get started with programming until high school, where I took some classes and found I really enjoyed the type of problem solving it required. There’s nothing quite as satisfying as figuring out a logical flow or squashing a particularly resilient bug, then watching the code finally run as intended.
My favorite technology by far is anything involving embedded systems. It’s absolutely fascinating how software can be used to make machines do things, using digital instructions to create physical output. I still have a lot to learn (incidentally, my lowest grade so far has been in Computer Architecture and Assembly Language), but I hope to one day work in the robotics industry.
Lastly, I am a competitive gymnast for the Washington Men’s Gymnastics Team. I spend much of my time at practice or volunteering, as we are an entirely self-funded program. Academically, I’m a Beaver, but I will bleed purple until the day I die:
