SUMMARY Junior Software Engineer seeking the path to start becoming a Senior Software Engineer and eventually a Program Manager. Actively looking for a Software Engineering position where I can architect, design, implement, and test software components. During this past year I have been working on a project at Digital Authentication Technologies (www.dathq.com) developing a location-awareness SDK for file protection and encryption using C++ and Microsoft Windows environments. We also began planning to move towards Java and portable devices. I quickly learned the complicated project domain in four months and began building and testing core components of the system. While finishing the last of my classes at RIT to complete my Bachelor’s Degree, I worked for two years at Paychex Inc., developing and testing financial software for things such as taxes and paychecks. I worked as a co/op employee making an hourly wage. I have experience with many different types of software tools, processes, methodologies and programming languages in order to best meet the needs of each particular domain.

Currently available.
