Hello! My name is Michaela Payne and I am a freshman at Old Dominion University. I am originally from Tennessee, but I have grown up in many different states being a military child. I am currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in computer science and sharpening my skills in programming languages such as Python. I am also in ROTC and aspire to commission as an officer in the Army’s Cyber Command upon graduating college.
