Introduce Yourself: Hi Steemit! My name is Nina :)

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Hi everybody!

My name is Nina and this is my very first post on Steemit. I am a student at the University of Michigan and am studying Computer Science. I am super interested in all types of tech and social media. I am particularly interested in software and app/web development. My passion is to help others through easy to use user interfaces and software design. I want to make software more accessible and easier for people to learn and use in their everyday lives. My other biggest passion is bringing tech to girls and getting them interested in Computer Science. I have organized and taught several Girls in Tech events and camps.

Ich habe auch ein Nebenfach in Deutsch! Ich habe Deutsch für sechs Jahre gelernten. Ich liebe deutsche Kultur und die Sprach, aber ich denke mein Deutsch arbeiten brauchen. Ob Sie mit mir sprechen, werde ich probieren.

I plan to mostly post about my time here at Michigan. I know when I was a senior in high school I couldn't get enough information about what my life at a specific university would be like. I even went so far as to create a Zillow type dorm website for one of my Hackathon projects (check it out https://dormdecs.wordpress.com). So to any prospective Michigan students out there, this account is for you.

I am also still super involved in FIRST Robotics after graduating from high school. FIRST Robotics is an international organization where students and mentors work together to build a robot in 6 weeks and compete in a different game each year. I am currently mentoring a team and am still connected to my team from high school. This year will be my first year volunteering and I will be a scorekeeper at two competitions in Michigan. I am also looking forward to attending the FIRST World Championship in Detroit this year! I plan to document my experiences as a volunteer and post some fun pictures along the way. If you're interested in learning more about FIRST or just want to talk about it, feel free to hit me up!

Some other fun facts about me:

  1. I am half Japanese and love my Japanese culture
  2. I sort of speak 3 languages (English, Japanese, German)
  3. I love to travel (Favorite place I've ever been to is probably Paris)
  4. I have been to all of the Disney parks besides the ones in China (I'm a complete Disney nerd :))
  5. I have a weakness for makeup even though I don't wear it on a day to day basis
  6. I love YouTube and am subscribed to 100+ creators
  7. I love theme parks and roller coasters and am part of a Theme Park Engineering Group at UMich (TPEG)
  8. I am a Ravenclaw 💙
