Jonah Burke’s Summary
I studied Finance and Computer Science at Penn/Wharton. I worked at Microsoft for three years on the SharePoint Portal Server team as a Program Manager. My team designed and implemented the enterprise application integration features of the product, including the Business Data Catalog. I've left Microsoft to work on my own software and apply to graduate school.
I want to apply my experience in finance and computer science to issues of social justice and equality. I want to work with creative, intelligent, dedicated people.
