WHOAMI

Hey!! I'm Alexiy, a Junior at Purdue majoring in CS and Math, with an
unbreakable caffeine addiction (even full-timers at SpaceX were concerned...).

I love learning anything new and learn best by getting my hands dirty. For me,
the best feeling in the world is when something works/clicks after bashing my
head against a problem for hours or even days.

In my free time, I love hiking / mountain biking, and finding excuses to visit
coffee shops.
