Hello everyone! My name is Daniel and this is my final quarter at OSU! I am definitely very excited to share my journey throughout this course. I also plan to use this blog as an opportunity to share updates on my journey as a soon-to-be new grad.

I started coding back in 2014 in an intro level CS course during my freshman year of my first degree. However, admittedly I struggled a lot during that course and felt that coding wasn’t for me. After this experience I felt defeated and lost interest in coding and for 3 and half years I didn’t touch a line of code. Then during my final quarter I was forced to take another CS course as part of my major requirements. I redundantly signed up for the second intro level CS course at my school and this time the experience was night and day compared to the first course. I absolutely killed it this time around. I finally felt that things were starting to stick and I did very well in that course. After that course I graduated but I was having doubts if my career path at the time was right for me.

I starting thinking about how much I enjoyed coding and began research on potential programs in CS. I found this program and applied. A month later I got an acceptance and decided to enroll for the Fall 2019 quarter. Fast forward and I am now reaching the end of this program. Throughout this time I have learned so much invaluable information both through courses and opportunities that presented themselves thanks to this degree.

I plan to continue sharing updates on my journey throughout this course and as a soon-to-be graduate. I will share information on my project, internships\/outside opportunities, the fulltime job search experience, and potentially any other interesting topic that comes to mind. I’m very excited to use this as an outlet to share my experience!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
