JEREMY GARIN

My journey into programming began in 2023 during my freshman year when I wrote my first “Hello World” program in C#. Through coursework, I started building small desktop applications, including a Scientific Calculator and Zodiac Sign Finder as a collaborative final project. Later that year, my team developed a desktop Point-of-Sale (POS) system for our finals, which introduced me to building complete systems and working in a collaborative team.

In my sophomore year (2024), I began learning Python through our Data Structures and Algorithms course and expanded into web development with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I contributed as a frontend developer to an e-commerce web application for our final project. During the second semester (2025), I learned Flutter and Firebase through our Application Development course and worked as a full-stack developer on a mobile e-commerce application, extending our previous web project into mobile. During the summer of 2025, I explored modern web development independently by learning React and building my first personal portfolio.

In my junior year (2025), I led a 9-member development team for a real-client project in our Software Engineering course, focusing on system design, architecture, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment, which sparked my interest in DevOps. Today (2026), my focus is on building reliable systems through automation and thoughtful architecture, continuing to learn Docker, Kubernetes, and exploring AI Engineering and model integrations to expand my skills toward intelligent, maintainable, and scalable systems.
