My name is Christopher J Pishaki, and I am a third-year computer science student at California State University, Northridge. I am deeply passionate about programming, and I am always searching for new opportunities to test myself and hone my skills. Tackling unique and novel problems with eagerness and positivity is my modus operandi.

As a person, I enjoy talking to others and learning about their experiences and lives. I am always curious and open to new ideas, which has helped me to develop a broad perspective and an empathetic approach to problem-solving.

In addition to my studies, I have worked on a number of coding projects, my proudest being a standalone integrated report processor (I affectionately call IRP!) during my time as an intern at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. These experiences have helped me to develop a range of technical skills and to gain experience working collaboratively with others.

I am excited to continue pursuing my passion for programming and to explore new challenges and opportunities in the field.
