  74                     <h2>A short history.</h2>
  75                     <p>Born and raised in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. I attended Conestoga Valley High School as part of the Class of 2016. I now attend Penn State University at University Park as a Computer Science major, with the intent to graduate in 2019. My passions have always included media of all kinds and computers; I've been programming in some form since 2012, and I've been thinking and writing about stories nearly my entire life.</p>
  76                     <p>In recent years I've developed a particular interest in Linux and open source software, and I've been working towards developing my skills in the hopes of contributing back to the FOSS community. I also care deeply about video games as an art form and source of potential for social change.</p>
