Jesse McGinnis’s Summary

Thus far, all of my experience really relies on what I have done in school. At the moment, this is very limited, however, that is changing rapidly. As well, once co-op starts, my wealth of knowledge will expand rapidly.

As for goals, I have a lot. Far to many to go into detail with all of them here. However, one of the bigger ones is to own a large company some day, of course in the software industry. I would also like to learn how to cook like a pro, cause food is so awesome.
