Initially, when I started my first year in university wanting , I wanted to be an environmental engineer, but I took one after taking a programming course that changed , I fell in love with coding and it became my life and found a passion for programming. Since then , I have been taking on multiple experimenting and exploring different side projects to improve my programming and problem-solving skills. I did some cool things projects like automate opening automating a program that logs onto my online classesfor me, automate one that automates playing piano tiles , and make even went as far as making an app that is similar to Google Drive for a one of my university coursecourses. More is available I linked these projects, among several others that I worked on to my [https://github.com/Hippity GitHub] </p> During my journey at AUB, I found another passion for myself, which ironically ended up being the reason for my presence in the UIF program. My friends and I had decided to join a hackathon, where we ended up winning first place! As a result, I founded and am developing a startup called FoxFeed. While working on FoxFeed, my team and I joined the accelerator program at AUB, and that is where I really began learning how to be an entrepreneur. From pitching, to investing, to even learning how to be a leader: my interest in entrepreneurship began to increase, especially since it was an interest that I could combine with my love for programming and create projects that could help those around me. From there, I decided to take a course in human-centered design. The HCD class helped me understand more about creating projects that helps make the lives of those around me better, but it was also a crucial step in my life, as it eventually led me to UIF, where I hope to grow and gain better tools that’ll help me in accomplishing my goals.
