Employment Objective: I am currently focused on the Website Development Certificate. I start an internship at Agilent this next semester and I will see what that brings. I intend to work as a computer programmer of some type.

Skills: My strongest skills are in programming. The programming languages that I'm knowledgable in are ( in order of depth of knowledge ): C++, HTML, C, Assembly Language, JavaScript. I have also worked with the unix operating system both on Bash, Bourne and C shells. I have some experience writing basic shell scripts as well as C scripts.

Project Role: I functioned as one of two Content Developers in the development of the ASTD website. I was responsible for the pages associated with the following navigational headers: Forums, Consultants, Advertise and Resources. I produced the external style sheet that we used and worked to conceptualize the linking structure and standard layout of the pages.

What I learned from the project: I learned quite a bit about the business aspect of producing web pages, an area that I knew very little about at the onset of this course. Some of the more dominant themes that impacted me were: working together as a team, lag time vs. crunch time, and hand-off of the project from one stage to the next. Some of the skills that I employed and developed: use of CSS, designing interesting pages that were purely informational, the use of table structures and basic HTML.
