  • Software Developer @ IBM in Houston, TX

    "From an early age I have always enjoyed solving puzzles; software development is a natural puzzle with infinite pieces. Figuring out that wild bug is always the highlight of my day. The only thing I can say I dislike about software engineering is when you can't trust your build environment. As a result, misleading results are obtained from running tests on broken code checked in by fellow engineers."

  • Software Developer @ Sears in Hoffman Estates, IL

    "The feeling of creating amazing things out of nothing! Conjuring new stuff like magicians! Ability to debug a problem like solving a murder mystery!! Being able to put software in the hands of people so that one day you come across a person loving a piece of software and you can proudly say that you were the part of the team that built it!!"
