Tyler Duckworth

I am a programmer, digital designer, and high-school student. I attend the L&N STEM Academy, a magnet-school in Knoxville, Tennessee, where I take rigorous classes and participate in extracurricular activities. Primarily, I helm the Programming sub-team of our school's FIRST Robotics team, the L&N STEMpunks. In it, I, along with other veteran programmers, teach rookies programming skills that they can apply in the industry today. On this website, I post about the work I am doing, school, and some essays discussing my perspective on various subjects.
