I am working towards my bachelor&#8217;s in Applied Computer Science, focusing on Web Development and Human-Computer Interactions. I currently live in Eugene Oregon, which places me in Pacific Standard Time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In my free time, I love to play board games with friends, and I am an avid cyclist and climber. I love staying active and exploring the outdoors as much as just staying in and reading a good book or playing games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My interest in computers started when I got interested in building little robots as a hobby, and then programming them. While in school, I started gaining an interest in the visual side of things like front-end development and UX\/UI design.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Currently, I work as a bartender, however, I am actively searching for an internship that will help me learn and progress in the field I am interested in.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I am not sure if I have a favorite technology, but I think I am always impressed by new technologies that are coming out and the growth of our field. I will say that the new AI tech that is coming out is really cool to see.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the senior project, there are many projects that piqued my interest. However, my top interest is the project to <a href=\"https:\/\/eecs.engineering.oregonstate.edu\/capstone\/submission\/pages\/viewSingleProject.php?id=Z1Jbee0o4nkZyfxW\">Create and Play Board Games<\/a>. This project seemed perfect because I understand board game mechanics, and have been learning Unity in my free time. Outside of this project, I found the other gamification projects interesting. As a person who struggles with certain mundane tasks, creating a game out of things has always helped and I would love to create entertaining environments for others.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Looking forward to meeting you all and taking on these projects!<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/7124\/files\/2023\/09\/IMG_20220924_110454_017-1.jpg 1124w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Sativa Maciel.
