Was not always a Programmer

Was not always a Programmer

I actually started out as a Biology Major. I liked the idea of studying life. We very beings are incredibly mysterious, so I decided at first to make that my career path. The dream was to graduate and enter into a top medical school...or so I thought.
I learned that I did not really like my university's approach to Biology very much. I would find myself thinking more about math and physics, and when I met my wife, I knew I had to switch career paths to support her.
I didn't consider myself to be intelligent at that moment of time.I still had so much more to work on. I even gave myself a little healthy philosophy that I will never be smart so I can keep working harder. It was a gamble (a wise one), but I took up computer science. I love the mix of math and physics in of its areas. However, the key goal of mastering this area is to continue my pursuit for a career in medicine, or at least, be a doctor by definition.
I want to develop software and use arduino microcontrollers to record health statistics such that I can make strong predictions about a current physiological state. So far that goal is still in progress! (Also its pretty late at the time I am writing this post, I need sleep.)
