This is me

Full Stack Developer

My name is Michael Kong. I'm a full stack Java Developer. I build websites all the way from back end databases to front end user interfaces. Being a New Yorker for over ten years, I moved to Chicago five years ago to break away from the hustle and bustle of the big Apple. Although I enjoy the friendly laid-back mid-western atmosphere, I still have a New York attitude when it comes to work. I always put my job first, and I am willing to put forth extra effort to finish the task at hand. I always pride myself on perfection.
