I'm Mike Diaz, a Software Engineer
with a background in the study of
human interaction.
Customer Service isn't the same as Sociology, but it requires an intimate knowledge of the emotional responses to words and deeds.
That's why I focus on listening, learning, and understanding whether I'm writing code, planning a project, or in a meeting.
I enrolled in Flatiron School's Software Engineering Program after realizing that so many of our personal and professional
obstacles could be more efficiently overcome by creating new or improving existing software. I have worked in Java, Javascript, React/Redux,
HTML5, CSS, Ruby/Rails, and am always eager to learn more.
