Grayson Riffe
Hello! My name is Grayson Riffe, and I am an undergraduate at Texas A&M majoring in Multidisciplinary Engineering with a concentration in Mechatronics and minoring in Cybersecurity. That's Electrical, Mechanical, and Computer Engineering all in one! Ever since I can remember, I've been interested in electronics, espcecially computers, and how to tell them what to do. I started my technical journey in 5th grade with learning Java programming. To truly understand what I was learning, I wrote tiny games such as tic-tac-toe, a number guessing game, and "Button Clicker" (a very bad knockoff of Cookie Clicker). As I started to get more competent, I then started looking into C++ on Windows with MSVC and Visual Studio. I have a strong background with compiled application development. Then, there are the electronics that make it all possible! A dream I had for a large part of my life was to build my own desktop computer from its individual components. To me, holding something that maybe thousands of images or hours of videos can be stored on that's about the size of a quarter (M.2 2230 SSD) is incredible. And after an IT summer internship, I was able to afford a desktop system, and now I use it to develop this website!
