Check out my latest project: Twitt3r.xyz , a Twitter clone built on Ethereum 👋 Hey there! I'm Max Petretta, A software engineer with a passion for building intuitive applications, reliable services, and systems that scale. Currently, I'm building the future of cloud infrastructure at GE Healthcare .
Based out of Detroit, MI Proud University of Michigan alumni Over 4 years of work experience About Me I've always had a love of technology, and have been more-or-less in front of a keyboard since Windows 98 and AOL were the hot new things. I discovered programming much later, while looking for fun electives to distract from my college engineering courses.
One major change later, and the rest is history. I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan-Dearborn. Afterwards, I joined GE's Digital Technology Leadership Program , and spent two years honing my technical and leadership abilities.
If I'm not coding, you can probably find me: golfing (poorly 😅), woodworking, building mechanical keyboards, or watching Premier League #COYS
