Austin Poch

I'm a student at University of Utah with one remaining class to get a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science. I'm currently looking for a full-time job or internship.

In my free time, you might catch me playing my bass guitar, fixing electronics, working on cars, camping and hiking all over Utah, or spending time with family and friends.

Education

Bachelor's in Computer Science

University of Utah
September 2020 - December 2025 (Expected, 1 elective class remaining)

September 2018 - August 2020

SLCC was great for getting the majority of my generals completed and learning basic programming skills like how loops work, binary numbering, floating point values, data structures, and basic web development.

Work

Sorenson Communications
