Hello everyone, My name is Nicholas Morris, and I am about to start my final class at Oregon State University: CS 467 Online Capstone. This program has been a long journey and I am excited to open a new chapter in my life. I am currently a software engineering intern at a government nuclear facility and am using my skills developed through this program to create features and fix defects for deployed software at the site.
Throughout my life, I always viewed computers as a side hobby. I kept this hobby while I went through nursing school. I graduated and became a nurse in 2020 and I still practice to this day as a neurological ICU nightshift nurse. Shortly after graduation, my desire to get a computer science degree started to grow, and I bit the bullet. I started prerequisite classes about 6 months after graduating nursing school, and here I am now!
I am very excited to start working with my team on a portfolio project. I have already learned a lot at my internship, and I know I will learn a lot in this class. I’m very open to all technologies and will learn whatever stack is needed for my project. I am currently thinking about creating a web application using Django for Python and some frontend.
I know we are all going to have a great summer. I can’t wait to see what we all create!
