teruhmaree's StandOut® Profile
My first name is Tara Marie, but most people just call me Tara. :)
I was born in the beautiful Philippine islands and I moved to the United States when I was 7 years old. Moving to the United States has opened many doors for my whole family. I now have a better opportunity of receiving a college education. I am currently entering my Sophomore year at Arizona State University.
Going into ASU, I had no idea what to major in. I had a great fascination and love for technology, especially computers. My brother, whom I am very close with, suggested I give Computer Science a shot since I've had experience with computer languages. After my first year at Ira A. Fulton, School of Engineering, I absolutely loved it! No other major could have been more perfect.
The fact that there are very few female engineers has motivated to be successful in my major. I want to be a role model especially for women that are looking to major in a male-dominated field. My ultimate goal is to graduate as a Magna Cum Laude (I currently have a 3.56 GPA - 3.8 needed to become a Magna) and find a career in Computer Programming.
Not only am I a student at ASU, but I also currently work there as a Student Worker/Receptionist to earn money for tuition. I have become an expert at saying, "ASU, College of Nursing, This is Tara. How may I direct your call?" :P
Other than school and work, I am a part time teenager. I am a cup more-than-half-full type of person and I have a tendency to always look for the best in a person. This characteristic may be my best quality, but it may also be my worst in some ways. So far, it has brought me more good than bad, so I'll consider it a good quality. ;)
Anyways, that's me in a nutshell. Thanks for visiting my profile!
