Christian Farls
Software Engineer
I'm an undergraduate at the University of Notre Dame working towards my Bachelors of Science in Computer Science.
I’m passionate about everything full-stack. I love exploring the modern frameworks and libraries that help developers build intuitive, high-performing applications, with particular interests in distributed systems, front-end frameworks, and artificial intelligence.

About Me
Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, I'm a fan of all things between and surrounding the three rivers. When at home, I can often be found catching a Steelers game with my family, stopping by Labriola's to chat with old coworkers, or spending time in Schenley Park with friends.
My love for technology began when I was asked to join a friend's FLL (First Lego League) robotics team in 2011. As an inaugural member ofNot the Droids You're Looking For, I learned the basics of drag-and-drop programming, robot design, and late-night debugging sessions.
Throughout middle school, I attended summer camps and tutoring sessions to learn the basics of Java and C++. Some of my core childhood memories include creating simple platformers, modding Minecraft, and installing more RAM on my mom's old Macbook Pro. From 2015-2017, I was invited to work as an instructor atMySTEM Academy. This is where I began to learn how to simplify and effectively communicate technical concepts to individuals with no background.
I've tried to diversify my undergraduate education as much as possible, taking courses in all areas of the discipline. Some of my favorites have been Distributed Systems, Intro to Artificial Intelligence, and Hackers in the Bazaar. These have taught me core, emerging, and historical principles that are important to know as a software engineer.
