Education

Southern Alberta Institute of Technology | Diploma of Education, Information Technology - Software Development

I am a student at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology enrolled in the Information Technology program, majoring in Software Development. I would consider myself as a tech-savvy individual, but had no prior experience in software development. After my first semester, I was challenged with learning a new skill in a new enviornment. Throughout my semester, I learned how to use Cisco Packet Tracer, Wireshark, VMware, Powershell, and my very first programming langauge - Java. By effectively managing my time, collaborating with peers, and ulimately a desire to learn more about the technology industry, I am wishful for my future career.

May 2022 - Present

University of Calgary | Bachelor of Arts, Economics

I graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Economics and a minor in Business Management and Society. I developed a strong foundation in: advanced microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, global trading systems, monetary theory, strategic business law and marketing. During my time I was able to quickly learn new applications such as, Minitab, Stata, and futher develop my Microsoft Office skills. Using these applications allowed me to collect and present the data I had researched throughout the numerous cost-benefit analysises, research papers, and professional presenations.
