Meet Alexander Rivard of our Neumann cohort! Alexander grew up right here in Fargo, ND and worked at Chic-Fil-A prior to joining EDA.
Learn about Alexander and why he chose EDA ⬇️
Why did you choose EDA?
It seemed like a great opportunity to learn programming while avoiding all the debt that comes with college.
What is the most interesting or surprising thing about EDA so far?
I was pleasantly surprised to find out Jenna and Katie would be teaching stuff aside from programming. I am still excited to try and learn these other skills.
Are there any companies you would love to work for?
Not currently, I am not sure of which companies are hiring as of now.
What are your hobbies outside of EDA?
I play competitive, or team-based video games. I especially love games where a group of players need to complete objectives while working together because it is near impossible to win alone.
Any advice for someone thinking about joining EDA?
Be ready to work hard, but don’t panic, it is not difficult so long as you keep working and ask questions as you need, you will get through it just fine. The instructors are very good at what they are doing.
What is something you are grateful for?
Watermelon!
