I was able to perform at the Chicago Symphony Center and with the Piano Guys, which were exciting and definitely memorable. However, I was also exposed to mentorship from professionals with different career paths and received personal development advice from teachers, staff, and the TPMS community. With this well rounded background, I felt prepared for any challenges headed my way &#8211; whether it was academic, professional, or personal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TPMS:\u00a0<\/strong>What are you doing now?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Christian:\u00a0<\/strong>I&#8217;m a Junior at Northwestern University studying Computer Science. Apart from school, I&#8217;m also a Software Developer Intern at a startup called Sorc&#8217;d based out of 1871. In my free time, I enjoy taking portrait photography and playing guitar or violin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TPMS:\u00a0<\/strong>Where do you see yourself in 5 years?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Christian:\u00a0<\/strong>After college I&#8217;m hoping to enter a software engineering role somewhere in Chicago or San Francisco. I&#8217;m super interested in startups and I&#8217;d love to work somewhere where I can make an impact on the company.
