About Me

About Nicholas Tuck

Hi, my name is Nicholas Tuck. Why you are here visiting this site I am unsure and why you want to read the About Me section I am more baffled. If you are here with a purpose then I am assuming you know me, otherwise why be here? If you do not know me well, I hope you are looking to give me a job because I have yet to be blessed with a stalker and so I would hate for you to be the one to pop my cherry.

Well since you read all that and you’re still here, why not give you something to read. I am a twenty one year old born and raised Californian until about seven years ago, when I so happily moved with my family to lovely Nebraska. Here I finished high school and recently completed my Bachelors of Sciences degree at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln.

Nicholas Tuck Hobbies

Well lets see, I played hockey for five years back when I lived in California and haven’t touched the puck once now that I live in a world of ice, so when do I stop listing it as a hobby? Pretty much any sport that isn’t golf or soccer I love to play.

I love to go camping, fishing, hiking, everything you do when you go camping basically. I camp in a tent. Trailers, motor homes do not count as camping just because you park in between two trees. Almost have all my own camping gear, pretty excited to be able to not borrow any of my parents stuff, even if half the stuff I own is given to me by them because they bought new stuff.

I obviously enjoy making websites, animations, programs. I just started messing around with computers a long time ago and now this is the product of that experience, how exciting.

Nick Tuck and Work

Well this site is an example of my work. I am a Computer Science Major as well as getting a Major in Math and a Minor in Physics. So my work is Computer Science, or programming. I have always messed around with websites and we can see I have come so far… Though I do not pick webdesign/webprogramming as a favorite, I can enjoy it sometimes.

I am best in C++ and Java, and I am not certain what exactly I want to specialize in or who I want to work for though I’m thinking Google or if Macintosh pays well I wouldn’t mind improving a company beneath the curve.

You can see more of my work in the Portfolio section of this site. It doesn’t have nearly close to everything I have created, but a good portion of my online creations exist there.

I am currently working for CSSS.NET (C Triple S) as a GIS Software Engineer. I work out of Offut Air force Base at the Weather Agency building (AFWA). This is a new job however I am extremely excited in the technologies I will be learning and advancing.

Nick Tuck and Amanda Tuck

I recently got married to Mrs. Amanda Tuck. We met when we were both Freshman in high school. We have not what would be described to be the perfect relationship to others standards, but perfect to us as through the past seven years we ended up together knowing we love each other and no one else would compare.

She is going to be a Nurse, after graduating a tech school to become a Medical Assistant she is now taking courses for the required general education classes, before she attends Clarkson.

We just got married December 1st of 2007. Thank you to all of those that came and experienced the very special occasion with us, it was a day we will never forget.

   

-I Love You Amanda

The Tuck Family

So either you are really interested in me or you are a family member thinking why is family on the bottom and where is my name. Either way, I will remain nameless so no one feels left out.

When I left California most of my family lived there, while some were in Arizona and others in Nevada. Now they are spread between those three states somewhat evenly. I love my family especially in the fact that family is important enough to travel hundreds of miles out to Nebraska for high school graduation. Save up family College Graduation is soon.

Once Amanda and I are both done with school we plan on moving to California wherever my job may take me. So I will be a lot closer to my extended family. My direct family though seem to be setting up camp in Nebraska which is their decision no matter how many people would choose otherwise. But I love my family enough so that when they graduate college I will come back and be here with them too.

   

-I love you All
