Service
I view service to academic and local communities as a valuable opportunity that I can contribute to the society that I belong to. I hope to spread a positive influence on the communities through my research and teaching that bring attention to under-served populations in computing education and raises awareness for CS for all. This can be seen in my services at the local, state, and national levels presented in the following. I intend to contribute to the local and academic community as I move forward as an education scholar.
