Hi, I'm Erick Cifuentes.
I'm a Software Engineer obsessed with Algorithms and Complexity Theory.

About me

Born and raised in San Diego, California, I am a first-generation undergrad at Columbia University. In the next few years I hope to pursue a Masters in Computer Science and eventually a Masters in Business Administration. I'm most interested in the role of a Product Manager, but I'm also open to other roles in the tech industry, particularly those that involve software engineering.

When I'm not programming, I enjoy playing volleyball, video games, and the drums. After my time at Columbia, I've also become interested in finance, astronomy, and philosophy.
