Mike Patterson 

http://mikepatt.org <br /><br /> I am a developer. I have strong interests in educational technologies, code literacy (and literacy in general), and startups. I primarily work on the backend but have frontend skills as well. This Spring 2013 semester, I am working within a team of 4 to create a therapeutic Android app with a Ruby on Rails web interface. <br /><br /> I am a writer. I am currently writing a science fiction novel. I have a blog that is mainly about tech though occasionally my life slips in there (or is it the other way around?). And I wrote my dorm's weekly newsletter the academic year of September 2012 through April 2013. <br /><br /> I am a self proclaimed efficiency expert. I am constantly looking for ways to speed up the unimportant things in life: like finding keys or getting ready in the morning: That way I can focus on the most important things in life: my friends and family, and my passions.
