For 3 months, I taught an Introduction to English course in (曲阜) Qufu, as well as part-time jobs via contract, such as introducing children to English vocabulary in the city of (济宁) Jining, & many diverse environments. Traveling & working abroad was an unparalleled experience for me. It has extended my Mandarin vocabulary, social skills, & on a personal note, it’s helped me better understand my life, goals & human nature.

Worked for two years as a warehouse associate, 1 year via temp agency SMX & 1 year as an official Amazon employee. I enjoyed working with my team in the fast-paced, stimulating environment, every day was a good workout.

Working as an assistant & project lead for a startup with Dr. Turner, Professor of Web Technologies.

My goal was to ensure that my team & I were meeting the demand of our clients, while teaching new interns necessary skills. B.C.S., now being defunct, I was recommended to CSUSB’s CS Department, see above.

Attended SBVC courses toward my major in Computer Science. There I began my path as a CS major via: VisualBasic.Net, 3D Animation, Graphic Design, Web Design, Electronics, plus my electives & requirements.
