Intro

Name

Ozzy Simpson

Description

I recently graduated Summa cum laude from The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., with a B.S. in Computer Science. This summer I'm working as a research assistant in the GW Usable Security and Privacy Lab, where I'm working on multiple projects, including their Privacy Label Observatory and survey technology. As a CyberCorps: Scholarship for Service recipient, I'll be continuing my education at GW for a fifth year during which I'll be pursuing an M.S. in Computer Science with a focus in computer security and information assurance.

At GW, I've been an undergraduate Undergraduate Teaching Assistant (UTA) for CSCI 3313 (Foundations of Computing) twice, CSCI 2113 (Software Engineering [Java]), and an undergraduate Learning Assistant for CSCI 2312 (Discrete Structures II) and CSCI 1012 (Intro to Python). I've previously interned as a software engineering intern at Capital One in their Technology Internship Program.

My passion for technology started in kindergarten, when I taught myself how to use iWeb to design websites. Around age ten, I started to teach myself how to develop (and not just design) websites and started a web design business. Since then, I've enjoyed building custom tools for myself, my high school's newspaper and student government, and other organizations I've been a part of or volunteered for.

When not busy in class and coding (yes, often for fun), I enjoy skiing, running, rock climbing, and finding the best vegan sushi wherever I am (Shizen in SF; Planta in DC, LA, and more).
