About Linnea Castro
I am a fourth-year student studying Computer Science at Washington State University. After spending 9 years in the Coast Guard, I ran my own photography studio and taught Barre3 group fitness classes in my community. These experiences allowed me to hone my creativity, public speaking skills, and build relationships with my clients. In 2021, I read a book called Mindset by Dr. Carol Dweck which challenged me to embrace a growth mindset and served as the impetus to begin my journey toward a degree in Computer Science. I love working on teams, learning something new each day, and am driven by the potential I see in myself and others.
