When I graduate, I want to be a software engineer and be able to build code and programs to accomplish certain tasks. I know that the technology industry in Mississippi is small, but if I could play a part in growing that, I think that would be the ideal space to be. I don’t know what that looks like right now, but that feels like the dream. I’ve always loved Mississippi. I know there are other interesting places in the world, but I just feel grounded here. It’s my place. It’s my home. So like any normal person would want to do, I want to make sure my home is doing well. I want it to grow, and I want to make sure it’s at the highest standard and the highest quality.”
