When Matthew Conover ’19 was a student at PLU, he recalls someone telling him there were two types of software engineers: the ones who chose to chase the money, and the ones who had no other choice. “I fall into the latter camp,” Conover said.…
-computer science courses I took at PLU. Physics, for instance, is an amazing way to learn problem solving. I find myself using many of the soft skills from the humanities courses as I am regularly trying to persuade people of my position’s correctness or trying to better communicate the intricacies of my solutions. While at PLU, you had the opportunity to study away. How was that experience? I spent the fall term of my fourth year at King’s College London. I also spent J-Term my second year in

couple of topics on my resume like “blockchain” and “machine learning” which have absolutely helped me. My capstone project, a blockchain game engine, put me in a really good position when Wiser started on event sourcing since it meant I had the most experience in the concept. It was not why they hired me, but it came in very handy. I also benefited from the non-computer science courses I took at PLU. Physics, for instance, is an amazing way to learn problem solving. I find myself using many of the
