    Hey all,

    I've been working as a full-time software engineer for about a year at the University of Colorado Boulder. I split my time between two projects, one in the physics department and the other in the math department.

    I graduated in May 2022 with a degree in mathematics with a focus on computation and a minor in computer science. During my degree, I worked part-time as a software engineer on both of the aforementioned projects, so I'd like to think I have more than just a year of experience.

    My girlfriend is starting a PhD this fall in the Bay Area, and I'd like to be able to follow her. Looking for a job in the Bay Area, but I'm open to other locations. Depends on the job.

    I greatly enjoy the process of writing code, and I am constantly improving. Ideally I'd like to work somewhere where I can learn as much as possible. Thank you very much for your consideration!
