Hi, I'm Derek - welcome to my homepage. As a part of this CS50 assignment I'm required to make a simple webpage covering some of my hobbies and interests. Two important interests and hobbys of mine recently have been travel and photography. Click the links in the navigation bar above to see some of my favorite photos from my travels abroad and from tugboats in Washington State.
As of February 2019 I've visited 23 different countries (including my home country, the United States). In total I've spent about 2 years abroad. A large chunk of this time was spent as a tourist, though I lived and worked in Australia for about 8 months and now have been in Germany for about four months. At the moment I'm taking a 20 hour/week German language course and trying to teach myself about computer science and programming.
