            <h1 class="text-center">Welcome</h1>
            <p>
              Hi, my name is Aaron Hornby.
              I'm a recent graduate from the University of Calgary with a B.Sc. in Computer Science.
              I also earned concentrations in "Computer Game Development" and "Computer Graphics".
              My main interests are in game development and developing desktop graphics applications using C++/OpenGL, but I'm always curious about learning about any modern tech stack.
              I'm currently in the process of finishing up several large projects: GitHub template repositories for C++ and OpenGL that allow for easier entry for developers and Farmyard Fling - a Unity2D Android vertical platformer.
              I also desire to keep improving my developed products through several pillars of usability: minimalism, intuition, accessibility, and performance.
            </p>
            <h2 class="text-center">Contact</h2>
            <p>
              If you want to contact me with any professional inquiry, please reach out via LinkedIn.
              My resume, email address, and phone number should be publicly available there.
              This requirement is to hopefully reduce the amount of spam I receive.
              If you want to discuss anything related to one of my projects or wish to share something cool you've built, please feel free to email me.
              Thank you!
            </p>
