About

Hello. My name is Pat Laster (aka Palaster). Born and raised in Louisiana, I took to computers early in my life. My first programming experience (self-taught) was developing mods for Minecraft (in Java) in early high school. I started learning in an official capacity when I took Computer Science I, Computer Science II, and Webdesign in high school. After I graduated high school, I started the Computer Science Bachelor's program at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science in 2020.
My hobbies include reading (my genre of choice is fantasy), gaming, and repairing retro consoles. My personal goals are to write a novel and complete and release a video game.
