Quoted from LinkedIn "I’m an experienced Developer in Information Technology I am currently working towards my Microsoft Office Specialist and SCRUM certifications. A notable project I worked on as a team leader was a Social Action Grant, where my team created a program that connects struggling families and individuals with resources they can benefit from. My goals for the future are to further my education in software by obtaining more certifications and perusing a degree in computer science so that I can develop my own websites, games, and other software. Currently, I am interested in becoming a Software Developer, I am interested in learning about new technology and creating software." He achieved those certificates and moved forward to his next goal of furthering his career.
