ABOUT HUNTER VER HELST

Who I Am

I am a sophomore at the University of Florida studying Computer Science in the College of Engineering. I love to code and am especially interested in the realm of IT and cybersecurity. I also possess strong leadership skills that I’ve developed from years of attending leadership conferences and being in leadership roles; I am not afraid to take charge. I believe a person should enjoy their work, and if they don’t, they’re not where they need to be; however, everyone needs a good balance of work and play, and I love to watch Netflix, code, and play video games and guitar in my spare time.
