I was born and raised in the USA. I am a C and C++ coder. I do not have any certifications but I have learned much from the Berkeley Webcasts. My knowledge base is always increasing and I would love to learn anything that relates to computers or programming. If I join a project I will be sure to give many ideas and implement as many of them as I can by myself. I would love to see the way other coder modify and optimize my code. I am also a web designer/webmaster in training. Again no certs there.
