Charles Cook Email & Phone Number

Personal Summary:I am Charles Cook, now a Software Engineer/Programmer, but I was first a computer geek. From adolescence, I learned how to use computers for simple things; playing games, drawing pictures, watching movies. In time, my fascination with the lower levels of how they worked drew me to Computer Science in college. Over my undergrad and postgrad studies, I learned many languages, wrote many programs, and even designed my own circuit boards. I'm now ready to put my chief skills, those of programming, to work for the industry, and make a name for myself.Skills:* Programming Languages, Primary:--* Python (Batch File Processing, Image Manipulation/Processing, GUIs, Games)--* C/C++/C# (Fast Execution Code, Object-Oriented programs, Unity engine scripting)--* Bash (One-liner Linux Programs, File Renaming/Sorting, System Administration)--* Java (Rigorous OOP, Minecraft modding)* Programming Languages, Secondary:--* Julia (Numerical computations, Monte Carlo simulations)--* Haskell (Parsing)--* Prolog (Closed Grammars, Constraint Programming)* Linux System Administration:--* Have run Arch Linux at home as main OS for nearly 5 years--* Can fluently utilize SSH/VNC for remote systems--* Preference for & competent with the Vim text editor* Programming Projects & Version Control--* Very familiar with git & github--* Learned how to use diff & patch to make changes to the Linux kernel (for a university course)--* Able to clearly identify and describe bugs or issues to teammates to facilitate expediate fixes--* School Projects available on request (kept private for plagiarism reasons)Hobbies:* 20th century Hi-Fi & Vinyl--* Full stack of Technics gear (turntable, equalizer, tapedeck, receiver)--* Oldies (Glenn Miller, Sinatra)--* Japanese (Junko Yagami, Anri)--* Rock (The Doors, Dire Straits, Men at Work)--* The Man in Black (Johnny Cash)* Hobbyist Circuit Board design--* Layouts done in KiCAD--* Prints made by OSH Park--* Current favorite is a 4-digit revolving message board, the size of a credit card
