About Me
My name is Christopher Young. I am 24 years old and live in Grants Pass, Oregon. I am a web developer and student currently in the last term of pursuing my bachelors in business management. I am seeking employment that will allow me to fulfill the requirements of an internship.
I am a hardworking, self-motivated individual who likes to see a project grow from nothing through to completion. I believe in honesty, punctuality, and working your hardest all the way through a job.
In my spare time, I enjoy art, programming, and pursuing personal electronic projects. I also enjoy spending time with my wife and our cat. I am a quiet and reserved individual, though I will give my opinion when it is appropriate.
Practical Experience
Microcontroller and microcomputer based projects such as the Retro-Rocket (Raspberry Pi based) and Claw-Machine (Arduino based). These were proof of concept projects to hone my skills in shell scripting, lua based programming for PICO-8, Python, and C++. These projects melded my programming skills with real world prototypes emphasizing craftsmanship and consumer appeal. See Projects for more information.
I have also done extensive programming on family websites. My father owns 14 domains and I own and maintain 8.
