Fullstack Developer

Hello! My name is Zachary Starnes, I am 18 and currently majoring in Computer Science at Clemson. My first introduction to programming was through Roblox developing games using Lua. Lua is a language similar to Python and C. I developed games on Roblox alone, and with teams for around six years. In 2019, created a Youtube channel centered around Lua and programming on Roblox and amassed over three thousand subscribers and one million views. As I outgrew Lua, I started learning other languages like Python, Javascript, C++. In 2023, I started working professionally for local businesses primarily creating both web and mobile apps. I am now attending Clemson and learning more everyday.

Experience

  • Computer Science BS at Clemson University

    I am attending Clemson and majoring in Computer Science. The Computer Science BS program is oriented toward design, implementation, and application of software systems to solve information processing problems. It prepares students for employment in the computer software field or for continued study toward an advanced degree in computer science.

  • Atlas Game Development

    Atlas was one of my first collaborative coding experiences. I worked along another student and an employee at Google to develop an open-world game using Lua. The game featured object-oriented systems to increase performance and enhance the coding experience for our team. I really enjoyed pair-programming with the team and working with different minds. It made coding enjoyable and helped me grasp difficult subjects.
