My name is Adrian Johnson, and I'm a senior at Virginia Tech studying Computer Science with a minor in Math.
I'm from the Northern Virginia area and have lived here for the majority of my life. When I'm not engrossed in academic pursuits, I find solace and joy in two main activities:
basketball and weightlifting. These endeavors allow me to stay active and maintain a balanced lifestyle. Additionally, I take great pleasure in following the NFL and NBA,
where I passionately support my favorite teams, the illustrious New York Giants and the storied Boston Celtics.
I am looking for enrichment experiences that support real-world projects and team communication channels, including but not limited to web design, software engineering and cybersecurity.
I am passionate about continuing to develop professionally and creating a positive impact through practical experience. I am expected to graduate in the Fall of 2024.
