hello world!

I'm Miguel "Mikey" Garcia, a GT CompE grad interested in quantum computing, robotics/ai, and embedded systems. Most recently I made automation software for Qualcomm (5g RF) as an intern. Right now, I'm getting ready to join the Air Force as a computer engineer!

Huge fan of GT basketball, the Baltimore Ravens, the Miami Heat, snowboarding, cooking, chess, Pokémon, Illenium, and blink-182.
