Hello, and welcome to my webpage! I'm excited for the opportunity to introduce myself and share a bit about my background with you.

My name is Rory Mulcahey, a seasoned technology enthusiast with a strong passion for understanding the intricacies of the digital and physical worlds. I began my professional journey as a mechanical engineer, driven by my love for math and physics. However, my innate curiosity led me to explore the realm of programming, where I discovered my passion as a software developer.

I hold a Master's degree in Software Engineering from Penn State, a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from California State University, Fullerton, and an Associate's degree in Math and Science from Fullerton College. My education has provided me with a strong foundation in both engineering disciplines, enabling me to seamlessly bridge the gap between them.

In my current role as a software developer, I relish the opportunity to solve complex logic puzzles through computer science, living my passion for problem-solving and innovation. I'm constantly seeking new challenges and opportunities to expand my skillset, as I believe in the power of continuous learning and growth.

I look forward to connecting with you and exploring new possibilities together!

Best regards,
RM
