Hello! I’m
Matthew Mikolay.

I’m a software engineer living in the New York metropolitan area.

• I have experience with frontend web development using TypeScript and React, as well as Android mobile app development using Kotlin and Java.
• In 2021, I co-authored a proposal for a folding hand fan emoji. This proposal was accepted by the Emoji Subcommittee of the Unicode Consortium and added to the emoji set in Unicode 15.
• I like making and drinking coffee, especially espresso.
• In my spare time, I enjoy learning languages. Some languages I’ve studied include Mandarin Chinese, Korean, and Swedish.
• I’m also interested in vintage computers.
