Hey everyone, my name is Gabriel Jacob I was born and raised about half an hour away in Decatur and this is my first semester at perimeter. My hobbies include camping, video games and graphic design, although I suck at the latter two. I really don’t have a single music preference but I prefer upbeat, bass heavy and fast-paced music so my Spotify playlist is predominantly rap and edm. I also throw in some other random genres like sea shanties, pop songs from the 2000s and classic rock. I will happily accept music suggestions if it helps me expand my horizons. I don’t follow sports religiously but I’ll root for UGA football and Atlanta Braves baseball. lastly, I have ADHD so if I happen to become a class clown out of the blue, that’s probably because I ran out of meds that day. I love self deprecating humor so you don’t need to get caught off guard when I roast myself. If there’s anything you can’t do, I’ll do it worse. 

My major is Computer science and then I’d like to transfer to GA State (as opposed to perimeter) where I would major in Graphic design. My goal is to find a field where I can utilize both of these majors like video game or web design. Computer science is a really profitable career but the last thing I want is a 9-5 cubicle job, I absolutely cannot work in a job that I don’t enjoy and I don’t enjoy working in a boring or cramped environment. I suppose that’s kind of contradictory given I’m easily distracted but I’ve never had problems actually doing homework for a class I enjoyed. no offense. If all else fails, I would still enjoy working outdoors so I could become a park ranger, nature conservationist or something along those lines. Speaking of outdoors, If anyone is tryna go camping, I can make a mean Dutch oven pizza and I practice the art of golden brown s’mores. I ain’t supplying gear though.
