I stopped worrying that I didn't fit the traditional computer science major profile because I fell in love with the creativity and challenge of technology.

OK Cupid, in its profile, comes across as the witty, literate geek-hipster, the math major with the Daft Punk vinyl collection and the mumblecore screenplay in development.

Landmarks, such as major success in the fight to cut measles deaths in Africa, and the release of a more accurate profile of the HIV epidemic, captured news headlines as well.
