## About
Hello, my name is Nicolas Garza. I'm a computer science student at the University of Texas at Austin, graduating in 2027.
My primary interests are in distributed systems, data structures, and algorithms. I previously worked as a Software Engineering Intern at [Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/).
> *Like everything else, Fletcher. Practice.*
## Personal
I've lived in Austin, TX my whole life. In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, playing ping-pong, and books. My reading mainly consists of research papers - most of which can be (broadly) categorized as systems papers.
I recently made a Linkedin Queens solver, and am now working through [Mini-LSM](https://skyzh.github.io/mini-lsm/), building an log-structured merge tree from scratch.
