Hi, my name is Luka Brown, and I'm a software engineer with a passion for coding! I first learned that I enjoyed coding in highschool by creating small games in Python. One of the first projects that really solidified my love for coding was when I recreated the classic The Oregon Trail game. Starting college, I began to explore more programming classes and have continued learning ever since.

I have earned my undergraduate degree at Texas State University, majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Applied Mathematics. Some of the courses I took include Machine Learning, Parallel Programming, Database Systems, Cybersecurity, and Operating Systems. Throughout my university experience, I've developed a deep fascination for understanding how computers work and ways to improve their efficiency. I take great pleasure in knowing precisely what my code is doing and optimizing it.

In addition to coding, I'm an avid gamer and have even built my own gaming PC. I love roguelike games, role playing games, first person shooters, and strategy games. Some of my favorite games include Fallout New Vegas, Mass Effect, Citizen Sleeper, and FTL: Faster Than Light. However, I also enjoy board games/TCGs with friends such as Magic The Gathering which I play every Thursday with a local group. When I'm not coding or gaming, I enjoy hiking and exploring the outdoors, playing tennis, and going bowling.
