It is a cutout of my head with this random cloud picture masked onto it and a static-y background. The plane represents my interest in the military and history in general. I am both piloting and gunning the plane. The plane is shooting a stream of 1&#8217;s and 0&#8217;s, representing my major (CS) and love of coding, and shotputs, which I threw back in high school. The purple vehicle is a Banshee from the Halo series. It&#8217;s there both because I play a lot of video games but also because I think Halo is the best game series out there (Halo: Reach &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; the rest). The mountain in the background has a double meaning. Firstly, it&#8217;s the Lonely Mountain from The Hobbit, and although most people didn&#8217;t like the Hobbit movies I thought they were pretty good. Secondly, I like the outdoors and love to hike so what better way to represent that than a mountain.
