Elevator Pitch:

Young and an experienced software developer, I had co-founded a company (USS) with a friend in the second year of college and have never since looked back since. Programming is essential to who I am. I am a self-motivated and extremely hard working person who started with the passion to just create which led to greater things and experiences. Working with multiple start-up companies in the beginning of my programming career had me doing things I had never done before or fall under my job title which had me learning on the job and quickly. Entering the job market during my studies resulted in not completing the program. However, in 2015 I decided to take some time off and finish my degree and am slated to graduate April of 2016. I believe I am now ready to move on and look for more challenges as a software developer.
