Skills

Computer Science and Software

Peter began learning programming in C and C++ within the Unix environment, and eventually extended his experience to web programming in .net Core (C#) with which he built his first professional application. He also has less but increasing experience in Python and Java. Peter has been exposed to theoretical areas of computer science such as Automata/Computation and Algorithm design and analysis, gaining decent experience in discrete mathematics and proof writing. In obtaining a certificate in cybersecurity, Peter took many classes based around computer security and gained practical exposure to computer forensics. He is currently working on refining the topics he learned in school as well as extending his knowledge to quantum computing. Please view the Projects tab for a listing of professional and recreational projects Peter has worked on.

Science and Math

In order to more fully explore science and engineering and extend his exposure beyond that of what most computer science students have seen, Peter made an attempt throughout his education to take more math and science classes than required, such as organic chemistry, astronomy courses, and numerical analysis. Although not required by his degree, Peter ensured he took Calculus III and Differential Equations in addition to the computer science math requirements since these are required by all other engineering degrees. In addition to coursework, he pursues further study in physics and engineering in order to open other career paths, with a particular interest in quantum physics, astronomy, and mechanical and aerospace engineering.

Music

Peter was professionally trained in classical clarinet before switching his focus to computer science in order to start a career in engineering and software. Today he continues to study as well as write music, but has shifted most of his practice to saxophone in jazz and modern music and hopes to make a side career of it as a performer and studio musician. He is currently experimenting with producing music both as a solo musician and part of an experimental group he and a friend started, recording parts for clarinet, alto and tenor saxophone, as well as guitar and bass guitar.
