My name is Tanner Ruminer, and I am a junior at the University of Texas at Dallas, pursuing a degree in Computer Information Systems. With 14 years of experience in the service industry, I have honed strong social and communication skills, which complement my technical expertise. I graduated from a six-month web development bootcamp at SMU, where I developed a solid foundation in programming and software development. I also owned and operated a coffee catering business, which allowed me to apply my analytical skills to optimize business processes. Currently, I serve as the operations manager at Wayward Coffee, a thriving cafe in downtown Dallas, where I oversee daily operations and continuously seek ways to improve efficiency. I am now looking to apply my technical skills and problem-solving abilities in a quantitative developer role, where I can contribute to data-driven decision-making and software development.
