Writing/tech
Personal Statement:
I am passionate about Life and almost everything therein. Language is one of these passions, specifically writing and computer programming. I am interested in writing because of the beautiful and unique way it connects us to human consciousness and the freedom with which this can be achieved. I am interested in computer programming because of its utility to build programs which influence human behaviour. Much of my spare time is spent either writing or self-teaching computer programming.
