About Kory Stringer

Music or Tech? I knew there would come a day where I would have to choose. It was a decision I would struggle with for years until finally one day I made my choice: Both.In fact, I found that by using both of my strengths I optimized not only my happiness, but productivity as well. What is sheet music, but code? And what is code but a foreign language? Both tell a story. Musicians are simply programmers. The day I learned that, was the day I realized I could reach my full potential. I now hold two degrees: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, and a Bachelor of Arts in Trombone Performance. These two degrees have taught me a lot about myself including the following:I love working in creative team environments-Using my artistic background often helps me stand out among other employees-I am great with team collaboration and always exceed expectations in my given role-I tend to have a fresh, inventive outlook on old or stale projectsI am a great team lead and encourager-To be a successful ensemble, there must be an experienced leader-My level-headed disposition allows me to confront issues head on, and calmly-Positive reinforcement will always triumph over negativity in the work spaceI constantly educate, refine, and push myself to be the best version of me-There is always more to learn and someone to learn from-Practice doesn't make perfect, it makes improvement and I aim to practice something every day-I accept critique with grace, and praise with humilityI enjoy making meaningful connections, so please reach out if you enjoy music and tech, expensive scotch, or baseball.Professional SkillsInformation Technology | Help Desk | Apple, Inc.
