I posted a couple things on Twitter today about micro-resumés. First, here’s how I’d summarize my work in a tweet.
What I’ve done: Math prof, programmer, statistician
What I do now: Consulting

(The formatting is a little off above. It’s leaving out a couple line breaks at the end that were in the original tweet.)
That’s not a bad summary. I’ve worked in applied math, software development, and statistics. Now I consult in those areas.
Next, I did the same for Frank Sinatra.

Experience: puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, pawn, king, up, down, over, out

This one’s kinda obscure. It’s a reference to the title cut from his album That’s Life.
I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I’ve been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing.
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race.
