Michael Burton Email & Phone Number

Ever since I played my first puzzle game I knew I loved problem-solving. I found that every time I finished a puzzle I got this feeling that nothing else could give me. It’s this same feeling that I get every time I finish a coding project, assignment, or even just fixing a programming bug. It’s this love of problem-solving that fuels my enthusiasm for this industry.I have extensive experience working in team environments, leveraging my strong communication skills to take leadership roles as opportunities have been presented. I can’t remember a time when I haven’t been working as part of a team. Key highlights include:• Worked as a shift manager at Subway restaurant.• Co-captain of my high school Mock Trial team.• Captain of my high school robotics team.My technical experience has come from a mixture of classwork, self-study, and reading. Through these avenues I have acquired the following skills.• Proficient in C.• Proficient in C++.• Proficient in Python.• Proficient in JavaScript.• Proficient in Java.• Extensive experience working with HTML and CSS for web applications.• Experienced with unit testing frameworks such as JUnit.• Extensive experience with Git and Github.My goal is to work on projects where I can both apply what I’ve learned and learn to innovate better approaches to problem-solving and project development. I look forward to the opportunity to tackle new and exciting challenges in a team environment where I can continue to share my enthusiasm for problem-solving and teamwork.
