About Us

"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives."

–Clay P. Bedford


Meet our Founder

Ainsley Freedman is a current sophomore at Emory University studying Computer Science and Mathematics (a student, just like you!). She created The CompPendium to share her passion for learning with a like-minded community.

She hopes this blog will serve as a place for you to learn and grow as a student, as a programmer, and as a person––you are the future, after all!


When she is not actively learning her next programming language, you can find her singing, crocheting, and watching "The 1% Club" on Fox, which she highly recommends checking out.


Our Mission

The CompPendium is a place of learning, growing, and community. Anyone from anywhere with any and every skill level is welcome here. We hope this blog makes you feel welcome and unafraid to ask questions.


The world of computer science is constantly growing and changing, which means there is always more to discover, more to learn, and more to grow.


We hope you enjoy reading through our blog as much as we enjoy making it!
