# Jordan Burton > Software Engineer at MeetElise Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jordanburton I am a young computer scientist that values creative freedom in projects. I believe there is a lot of worth in connecting with others due to the potential for developing new ideas. I try to live a virtuous life; doing my best to be compassionate towards my peers in hopes that others will pass it forward. I love learning about new and interesting topics, and take every working opportunity as not only a way to advance my professional career, but to learn and grow as a person. As a student athlete for Duke University at the division 1 level, I find it difficult to give up on something I deem as a passion. Being committed to the sport of track and field has taught me that one should not focus solely on the outcome, but rather, should put special attention on the small tasks that contribute to achieving said goal. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ EliseAI Jan 2021 – Present | New York, New York, United States ### Software Engineer @ Applied Predictive Technologies Jan 2018 – Jan 2021 | Arlington, Virginia Empower user experience and success by building out numerous product features as a member of the Core UI team.
