I received my associate of science degree in computer science from Piedmont Virginia Community College and transferred to Longwood University at the beginning of my junior year. At Longwood, I am continuing my study of computer science with a concentration in information systems. I am a member of the Virginia Academy of Sciences (this research was also presented at the 2011 Virginia Academy of Sciences 2011 Meeting) and a recipient of the Albert W. and Mary N. Joynes Scholarship. I am currently doing an internship with Reminder Media for which I am developing front-end and back-end web-based applications. I also work full time for Ranson’s Inc. in Farmville, Virginia.
