About me

Hi, I'm Connor Carro. I've been programming since 2019. I started with Scratch, then moved into Java, and now work primarily in Python and Node.js. Backend systems, automation, and security are where I spend most of my time.

Most of my projects begin with a question I want to answer, or a tool I wish existed. That curiosity has led me to build a wide range of projects, which I've listed on this website.

I've competed in CyberPatriot's Cisco networking category for three years. #1 in Florida each time, top 10 nationally. In National Cyber League, I finished in the top 1.3% in the 2026 team game.

I'm a high school student from Florida, looking for part-time and full-time opportunities in software development, cybersecurity, systems engineering, or networking.
