About Me
A dedicated family man and passionate computer science student who believes in continuous learning and growth.
Hey I'm Garrett, my journey into technology is intertwined with my love for family. Whether I'm studying new programming concepts or teaching my daughter about the wonders of technology and joys of learning, I find joy in sharing knowledge and creating meaningful experiences. My family is my greatest motivation and source of inspiration, driving me to be the best version of myself both personally and academically.
Currently, I'm pursuing my Computer Science degree at the University of Maine. I'm particularly fascinated by software development and blockchain technology. My background as an aircraft mechanic in the Navy has instilled in me a strong foundation in problem-solving and technical expertise, which I now apply to my studies in computer science. I approach every challenge with a growth mindset, constantly seeking to expand my knowledge and skills in this ever-evolving field.
