Originally, Luke was going to college at the University of Alaska Fairbanks for Theoretical Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics. After three years of grueling Mathematics, he had fallen to the point of burn out where he had to find a different path. So, over the summer of 2024 he went and got his A+ certification while working as a Barista to make ends meet.
