About

Leveraging over 5 years of project management, people management, and strategic planning experience at start-ups. I am looking to transition into roles that require Python, JavaScript, React, SQL, .Net, C#, and/or advanced analytics skills. I am detail oriented, driven, proactive, and calm; able to rapidly shift gears and pivot priorities without shying away from a situation or problem. I can provide references from Carroll Guido Groffman Cohen Bar & Karalian and Headspace upon request. I can be reached at Michael.Luevanos@gmail.com.

When I'm not at my computer I can be found cooking, watching movies, at a museum, going on an adventure with my rescue dog Bennie, catching up with family, deep diving into current events or traveling.
