++ My name is Demetrius S and I am a college student in my 20s pursuing a + Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. Of course, a computer science + degree isn't all that I am! +
+What do I do?
++ Professionally, I work for my University's IT Help Desk. I like my + job, the people I work with, and the problems I solve. I would be + very happy to work in either the IT or the SWE field, as both fields + have problems I like solving. Maybe one day I can do both! +
++ I also participate in some clubs at my University, and, when time + allows, I enjoy quite a few hobbies outside of my extracurriculars. +
+University Clubs
+Cybersecurity Club, Vice President
++ So far, my role entails planning and facilitating meetings. The + task I enjoy most, however, is to listen and learn. Our club + President has a lot of informative things to teach us! +
+Computer Science Club, Treasurer
++ I took on this role recently due to a vacancy. I've lots to learn. + My friend, who acts as Treasurer for other clubs, is teaching me. +
+Competitive Programming Club, Member
++ I have gone to and competed in a few competitions in coordination + with the club. We've attended PACISE, ICPC, and others. It is an + amazing experience to solve a problem under stress! +
+Hobbies
+Music: Curating and Listening
++ While I don't make music, I certainly enjoy finding new music. + Either from online or from other media like movies, music follows + me everywhere. One of the things about the Internet of which I'm + most grateful is the exposure to music I receive. Music in many + languages, even when not understood by me, still sounds great. +
++ I've fallen in love with many genres throughout my life. One + consistent genre "type" has been electronic music. My life with EM + started with dubstep, but I soon grew out of the genre and moved + on to other things for a time. In late 2022, I stumbled upon a + drum and bass musician named LTJ Bukem. Because of him and others, + I enjoy jungle / drum and bass. +
++ More conventional genres such as rock, rap, R&B, and pop have + also enjoyed a special spot in my life. From the era of Jimi + Hendrix to the decade of Nirvana, rock rocks! Also, rap and pop in + not just English but also other languages (such as French rap or + Russian pop) are things I return to periodically. I must say that + having just a little bit of curiosity when listening to music in + other languages really helps you learn even basic words and + phrases for fun. +
+Friends!
++ I have amazing friends who teach me so much. The world, defined only + through my own lens, looks very small. These friends have made my + world so much larger. +
