Jillian MacGregor

I live in Nashua, New Hampshire; I was born in Boston, but I have lived in NH for my whole life. I have a mother, a father, and a brother, who is 19 and attends college at RPI. I have to say that my love for computer science stemmed from the three of them, who are quite savvy with computers. Also, for 7th and 8th grade, I attended the Academy for Science and Design, which is a charter school in Nashua that is focused on math and science. I have been able to take advanced courses that are interesting to me, along with meeting new people and having new experiences. Since then, I have also been inspired to try programming, and have taught it to myself a little bit.
