Isaac Aggrey’s Summary

A full-time University of Texas at Austin student with a growing variety of job experience and interests. Particularly passionate about the use of open source methodologies to improve our quality of life and the democratization of education.

A quote from Luis von Ahn (creator of reCAPTCHA) concisely describes the source of my inspiration:

"Think about humankind's biggest accomplishments: the pyramids of Egypt, the Panama canal, the Apollo project, etc. All of these required the collaboration of about 100,000 people. My question is: what can we do if we get 100 million people working together? Since the advent of the Web, for the first time in human history, we can bring this many people to work on a common goal. What can we do with this many people? I don't think we can think big enough yet to figure this out."
