About me

Hello World, my name is Alexander Turco, thanks for checking out my website! I wrote this website using react and tailwindcss as a means of bettering my Javascript skills while also finding a cool way to share some of the projects I have been involved in (because resumes are boring). I am currently an undergraduate student at McMaster University pursuing a degree in biology. Prior to university, the thought of programming had never even slipped my mind as I believed my interests in biology would keep me far away from any code. I started to realize how wrong I was and in fact, I came across an area of study called bioinformatics which utilizes computational methods to analyze biological data. I now have the best of both worlds and am able to combine my love of biology with my love of programming.
