My name is Mikal. I am a senior at Hinsdale High School. I play football and golf and I enjoy working with electricity.

I’ve always had an interest in computers. Learning to code seemed to be the next logical step in my education.

**How did you find out about CodeHS?**

My mother told me about a free subscription to CodeHS and I thought it would be fun to try it out.

**Favorite program you’ve made so far?**

My favorite program so far is the Breakout game. I grew up playing games like it and now I’m able to create them!
