Nice to meet you! My name is Lydia Clarke, and I am a
Mathematics and Computer Science double major at McMurry University
graduating May 2021. I enjoy math and programming so much I just
couldn't decide which one I liked more so I chose both to specilaize
in!
Since my graduation is very close, I am looking for a new
place to work at and to call home. I am exploring data science, software engineering and
front-end/back-end development as potential careers. My variety of skills
include programming in C, Java, CSS, PHP, Python, MySQL and HTML. I
also have some experience in User Experience design following my UX
Design internship with IBM this past summer.
I am a quick learner and outstanding student driven by my
desire to learn new things. I also work as a student tutor in
mathematics and computer science for the McMurry University TRIO
Support Services and the Academic Enrichment Center. My 3+ years
experience working as a student tutor shows that I can fully
understand and grasp concepts not only to do well in my classes but
to teach it to my peers. It also further reflects my ability to work
with others, and my ability to identify the best ways to help
students be successful. Lastly, I am a team player, having been team
captain in collegiate athletics and currently the president of the
McMurry Mathematics club. I hope that someday through past and future
experiences I can be a role model for women in the technology field.
