About Josue Melendez
Currently, I am a junior at the University of Maryland, working towards degrees in Computer Science and Finance. I am committed to personal and professional growth, as I strive to create diverse, equitable environments where all are welcome and all can contribute. My passion for learning alongside others is paired well with computer science and finance, as there is always something to learn, and always someone to learn with and from. I hope to use my passion and skills to help empower those around me and find success for both myself and my peers. When I am not focused on my professional and academic career I enjoy weightlifting, video games, and reading.
