Salutations! I am Alex Heinking

Senior studying Computer Science at Kansas State University.

Background Studies

While my studies at Kansas State have been largely limited to C and C#, I have completed two internships with Burns & McDonnell that highlighted typescript, particularly the Angular framework, as well as utilizing a Docker API for our data computations.

Branching off of that experience after my first summer I decided to build a website using React, which was crude at best but allowed me to explore different frameworks that are applied in real world jobs, you can find this website here. After my second internship I decided to make another website using Hugo and Go, which is what you are currently viewing!

Home Town

I am from Shawnee, Kansas where I was born and raised in a family of four, and where I grauated from Mill Valley Highschool in 2020.

Passion for Computers

For most of my life I have been extremely passionate about all things computer related, and even built my first computer when I was in just 7th grade. This was just me getting my foot into the door however because I would later take all the coding classes my high school had to offer (which was really only just a single html course), which brought me to being a Computer Science major.

Most people say when going to college that everyone changes their major at least once, however I am lucky to be able to say I knew the route I wanted to go down since I was in middle school.
