Hello! My name is Mayssam Kalajo, and there is little I am passionate about more than software development. I spent most of my college career as a Teaching Assistant for classes centered around C++, as well as interned at three software companies in test automation, manual QA, and web development (both frontend and backend). I also have experience in Java, Python, and C#. I absolutely adore software development, as it allows for both my creative and mathematical side to combine and create a wonderful product. I look forward to seeing where software will take me!
