This kid will go places.

seriously, that's a great looking resume - though it would be nice if i could click on one of the skills (e.g., Print Design) and see some examples

He is the swiss knife of the interns..

Just fyi, you have a typo on your "What can I bring to your team?" page. You misspelled "radically" as "radicaly". Otherwise it looks great -- good going! Very impressive for a high-school student.

FYI in the US it is considered inappropriate to have your picture on a resume.

Your page looks great because you have great skills and achievements to show. Remember that. You are getting A LOT of attention in HN, that will sure be picked up by another places on the interwebs.

So, my piece of advice: do not use this fame and fall in temptation to start capitalizaing solely on your personal brand, giving lectures, interviews, writing books on how to be hired by the hottest startups and other distractions. Keep focusing on working hard to build things. You are doing a great job on this so far. Congrats!

Congrats. You put a lot of American job seeking college kids to shame.

From the page source: Nice.

Honestly I was a little disappointed with a disclaimer like that: https://i.imgur.com/vqz9wRX.png

While we're at it, under 'Upload.it' you wrote:

Just need to take out "more"

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Also "databeses" in the "Experience with databeses" line.

Databese should be an alternate term for big data.

This needs to happen.

If he were sending a standard printed resume through the mail then you might have a point. This online version is something different and I doubt that anyone looking for talent would disqualify him for having his picture on there.
