I started my time at the University of Rochester as an electrical computer engineer major but soon lost interest in the physical sciences aspect while being drawn to the pure logic and computing parts of my class. It wasn’t long before I decided to follow that drive and move to computer science. Concurrently, my passion for creating video games flourished and I found enjoyment in taking knowledge attained in the classroom and implementing it into my games. Junior year I became president of video game development club, where I got to foster a community of like minded, passionate game developers. Graduating, I plan to be a software developer. While I’m unsure if my career will center on game development, I’m sure that passion will stay with me. Additionally, I found my minor in psychology enriches skills as both a computer scientist and game developer.

"Frankie DiGiorgio is grateful for the opportunity to learn from his classmates and friends as well as from the many esteemed professors at the Hajim school. Frankie enjoyed working on various personal projects stemming from what he learned through formal study. He utilized Java’s Socket library and Google’s speech API to develop a prototype for a virtual desktop assistant. He also enjoyed working on projects using Unity’s Real-Time Development Platform where he learned the basics of game development and scripting. In addition to the many computer science courses he took at Rochester, Frankie enjoyed exploring areas of study unrelated to his degree. Due to his Italian heritage, Frankie took an interest in learning the Italian language during his last two years of school and will continue to expand his understanding after graduation. He hopes that one day he will be able to use what he learned at Rochester on a trip to Italy with his family. Throughout his time as an undergraduate, Frankie has been able to learn the basics of the tech industry, which lead him to obtain software engineering internships at two companies: Measures for Justice and Lockheed Martin. Frankie has now accepted a position as a software engineer for Lockheed Martin after graduation and looks forward to what the future holds for him. He would very much like to thank his family and friends for their unconditional love and support in his endeavors academically and beyond."
