Hi! I am Philipp, a 16-year-old student attending a Gymnasium in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. I have been passionate about Computer Science since I started programming in Python at age 10. Since then, I have explored languages like C, C++, Rust, and Java (at the moment focusing on C and C++) and participated in many CS and math competitions. I am currently participating in a youth study program at the University of Rostock in which I begin my computer science study. I also lead an extracurricular coding class at my school. As an ICSC Ambassador, I want to help other students discover the joy of programming and guide them through their first steps into competitive CS. My school offers a great community of motivated students and I hope to mentor them, answer their questions, and help them grow into confident problem-solvers.
