Time flies with you're having fun
For an outline of my college education, take a look at my
course timeline.
Kevin D'Aquila, I am. My website, this is.
Hey all. This is about as much of an autobiography as I think
I'd ever want to write.
I'm a graduate from
Worcester Polytechnic Instite. Computer Science major, with a
minor in Computer Engineering. I'm a participant in the BS/MS program
at WPI, and am currently studying toward a Master's degree in Computer
Science.
I was born in the...uh...rural town of Berlin, CT (population
~18,000). Fields, trees, rocks, cows - we got 'em!
Berlin is the geographical center of Connecticut. I went to Emma
Hart Willard Elementary school (which incidentally I can see from my
house). Catherine McGee Middle School (where I learned how to
work on power tools for the first time <sniff>, and I also
learned how to touch type). Ah then it was up to the big
house,
Berlin High School that
is. Won a couple technology awards, took AP/Honors classes, was a
co-webmaster of the school's site for a couple years, and graduated with
honors.
During the great college hunt I applied to six places: WPI,
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Northeastern University,
University of Hartford, University of New Haven, and Trinity.
Once the acceptance letters were in it was between WPI and
RPI. A few visits between campuses and my mind was made up -
off to WPI!
That was four years ago. Amazing how time flies...my undergraduate
work is complete! I graduated with distinction, and now hold a
Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, with a minor in Computer
Engineering. Still up at WPI though, with a year of Graduate
classes left between me and a Master's.
p.s. This is my second serious attempt at a website. It borrows
most of the content and flow of the last site, but with a bunch
more cool concepts and tools than I knew how to use before.
Bottom line: I'm a geek, and I have the
geekcode
to prove it!
