Bradley Cortright Email & Phone Number

Prior to my current programming pursuits, I spent several years gaining real-world work experience in managerial roles within the restaurant industry, until I realized that my true passion was coding. Fast forward four years, and I am now a senior at The University of Illinois at Chicago, majoring in Computer Science at UIC’s College of Engineering. I have spent my years at UIC building strong foundations in computer science theory, software design practices, and general programming techniques. Some recent examples of school projects include: • Creating programs that implement smart pointers and virtual copying schemes (written using C++)• Developing a Java application (which uses implements multiple design patterns) to manage a small business’ inventory, as part of a 4-person team• Developing a C# application that allows users to search for criteria about various Chicago neighborhoods by interfacing with OpenDataChicago’s database, as part of a 4-person team• I have also worked with SQL, F#, and Python to complete various assignmentsOn the side, I previously developed a small game, called Sling Shooter, as an experiment with Unity/MonoDevelop (written using C#). I am currently developing a mobile game (as yet untitled), which should be released on the Google Play Store in the next few months. I am looking for a chance to test myself and my skills in a real-world setting, and am excited by the challenges this will present. I pick up new languages and frameworks quickly and enjoy the learning process, so venturing out of my comfort zone is not only a possibility, but also a welcome adventure. Ideally, I would like to work for a company that will push me to expand my skill set and grow as a full stack developer, within a collaborative atmosphere with people whose passion and dedication matches and reinforces my own.

Listed skills include Java, C, C++, Computer Science, and 18 others.
