Turner Burchard

About Me

Hello! I'm Turner Burchard, an experienced student with a background in software engineering, artificial intelligence, and data science. I thrive on solving complex problems in an environment where I can grow alongside talented developers. I'm most passionate about Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering, but I enjoy working on anything with interesting problems to solve. Currently, I am a Master's Candidate at Montana State University, where I plan to graduate in May 2025 with an M.S. in Computer Science and an Artificial Intelligence Certificate.

In my free time, I love to experience nature through hiking, skiing, and climbing (check out my photography on Instagram). When I'm inside, I enjoy hacking, chess, gaming, reading, drawing, and more.
