I'm Cooper Sizemore, a motivated computer science student graduating from NC State in May 2027! I'm passionate about solving complex, real problems using software and providing useful and valuable software solutions to people. To me, software is about people, as it gives us a chance to solve problems for all kinds of people at a massive scale, and that notion is what drives me as a software engineer.
Here's one of my favorite songs as of late: Distant Lover
Right now, I'm building WolfHacks, a brand new 24-hr hackathon by ACM at NC State, as a lead organizer. Many exciting things underway with this!
Check out Interview Arcade, my HackNC 2025 1st Place winning Hackathon Project where my team and I built a mock technical interview tool powered by AI in 24 hours!
At my first Hackathon, HackNC_State 2025, my team and I built Kindred, a cross-platform mobile app for homeless organizations and food kitchens to post requests for goods that the community can fulfuill!
To see my work from App Development Club, check out CoursePilot, a tool for NCSU students to build prospective schedules from the convenience of their mobile phone!
