I'm a student at Sam Houston State University, I'm double majoring in Criminal Justice and Cybersecurity! I'll have my bachelor's of science for Criminal Justice in August. I am currently interning for the TDCJ in their ITD division. At school I am heavily involved within the computer science department. I am the president of the SHSU ACM chapter for the 2022-2023 school year. I am also captain of our competition team, which we call The Purple Team. I'm looking forward to joining everyone this Saturday! This is only my 2nd time attending The Diana Initiative, but it surely won't be my last!
