Philip Hoffman’s Summary

I am currently seeking a full time technical position in the software engineering industry

With an education in computer science, I have a strong background in the software engineering field. I've applied my knowledge and skills in numerous settings including: software development for ultrasound devices, company website and internal network management, online conference registration database programming and maintenance, and private contract work for application development.

For the past several years I've worked as a member of a diverse team at the University of Washington to serve and engage students of all different backgrounds on the campus. As a result, I'm an experienced team team leader and member, teacher and speaker, mentor and negotiator. I have extensive experience in cross-cultural relationship building and conflict resolution, personal growth and leadership development, coordination of large events and service projects, and maintaining relationships with hundreds of students and donors in our organization.

I love problem solving and am passionate about people and improving life; I particularly enjoy anything involving games and interaction.
