I’m a senior studying advertising at Oregon, and I taught myself to build software along the way. Everything below is live and in use.
I like figuring out what’s slowing a business down, then building the fix myself.
Advertising taught me to start with the customer: what they need and what gets them to act. Then, working at a manufacturing company in LA, I watched the team lose hours, and sometimes whole orders, to paper and spreadsheets. So I built the system they use now.
That’s what I want to keep doing after I graduate. Get close to how a business runs, find what’s broken, and build the fix.
I graduate in 2027 and I’m looking for internships and jobs where I get to understand the business and build for it.
