Background:
I've grown up in Mississippi but I'm not a "hick". My father was born in Iran, and my mom in the US, which explains my unique name. I generally go by my middle name, "Jean", due to childhood trauma (even today, I don't like mayonaise...).
I had the wonderful pleasure of attending the Mississippi School for Mathematics and Science for my junior and senior years of high school. If you're a resident of MS (or another state which has one of these schools), I really encourage you to check it out.
After graduating from MSMS in 1998, I moved really far away from home
(about 24,900.4 miles away ***) to attend Miss. State. In May 2002
(or maybe August 2002), I will graduate with a B.S. in Computer
Engineering and a minor in Mathematics.
Other Stuff:
I attempted swim team at MSMS and was pretty good. We took 2nd and
3rd in the district my two years. I played soccer, too, but it was
more for fun than competition. At MSU, I was a member of the bowling
team freshman year...
I've been a member of various clubs such as Mu Alpha Theta, FBLA, the Enviromental Society, ACM, and IEEE. Currently, I am the President of MSU's IEEE chapter.
If you are curious about work experience, you should check out my
resume.
Future:
After graduation, I plan on going to grad school. I'm not sure about
the exact details though... And then I will graduate, work until I'm
30, and retire to my very own island country. Yeah...right!
*** If you head west... Seeing as the earth's circumference is approx
24,902.4 miles, heading east I live about 2 miles from home.
