Hello

I'm Genesis

Columbia Undergraduate Student & Intern at NVIDIA

About Me

I am a resilient, hard-working student from south Texas who loves computer science and entrepreneurship! I have a strong passion for helping others through service, mentorship, and community building because I was often on the receiving end as a low-income youth. I am grateful for the invaluable impact that mentorship and community have had on me and, as a result, it inspired me to become a role model for other students in my community.

I always give my 110% effort with anything I do, along with a smile. I am a quick learner and up for any challenge that comes my way. I am searching for professional guidance and opportunities to both learn and improve!

Experience

Work experience is the best way to build skill sets that will be valuable in any industry. I enjoy seeking out diverse work experience to explore interests and passions of mine. All of my experiences have granted me an incredible network and worked as a catalyst for my personal development.
