I am still exploring different fields of study to find the best which will be interesting for me and will be best for my future career goals.  During high school, when I was junior, I took a computer science class, which gave me my first real experience with programming and technology. That class motivated me to pursue cybersecurity in college because I realized how important it is to protect information in today\u2019s digital world. Also, this class show me that it&#8217;s not easy to work with computer science. Outside of school, I like to explore different interests that give me some break and help me relax, maybe these hobbies help me stay creative too. I am especially interested in cars and music production, and I enjoy finding ways to connect creativity with technology. Through my time at ODU, I hope to develop strong technical skills, grow as a student, learn more about different majors, and find the right direction for my future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-296\" style=\"width:373px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-630x840.jpeg 630w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-960x1280.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/ruslaneportfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39703\/2025\/09\/IMG_1987-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Ruslan Rustamov, and I am a freshman at Old Dominion University with an undecided major.
