Michael Carey
In senior high Michael grabbed his father's ANSI C programming manual and taught
himself C programming using Microsoft's Quick C Compiler. After graduating high
school he was hired as a junior level programmer working for Cogito, Inc. From there
he worked as a team member in the Starbucks Coffee third level store support and
was responsible for all North American stores interfacing directly with the programmers
to solve store level issues.
After Starbucks, Michael left on his mission from Dec 1999 to Nov 2001 for the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Arizona Tempe Mission. After working
as a contractor for Microsoft, he left for BYU-Idaho in 2003 and began his studies
for a Bachelor Degree in Computer Science. In 2005 Michael took a year break to
start a company called KumuSoft LLC writing a web application for genealogical research
and presentation.
During 2007, while in school, Michael began the development of AdverTran. He has
since continued to work with Carey and Associates, Inc. and to do various contract
jobs. Michael was happily married to Nicole in the beginning of 2010 and is planning
on returning to finish out his degree starting January 2012.
