Introduction

Hello,

               My name is Kevin Daniels and I'm a senior at San Jose State University. I grew up in Goleta, California and attended Santa Barbara City College. I originally planned on being an Electrical Engineer like my father.  I am majoring in Computer Science, currently with a minor in Japanese. I decided to choose computer science because I loved problem solving. I very much enjoyed Algorithms and Advanced Algorithms at San Jose State, backtracking, heuristic algorithms, approximation algorithms, and branch and bound problems. I also really loved the ability to create things purely with the keyboard, as well as the analytical capabilities of my peers. Computer Science has a lot of new and exciting problems to tackle every day.

My current extracurricular focuses are exploring front end development, socket/network programming, and Lisp. I plan on developing these abilities to help my colleges in developing our video game.
