I
am a computer programmer with a love for challenges and a desire to solve
problems.
I pride
myself on quality and efficiency whenever possible. I am very professional and
expect the highest effort out of myself and the
people I work with. I have many
desirable
skills I can offer but my two best are communication
and ability to learn. I have always
been
a strong and effective communicator in all aspects
especially when communicating technical
ideas to non-technical people. My ability to learn is great and I have
excelled at learning
programming languages. I picked up PL/SQL and Oracle in 2 weeks and FoxPro in 1.
Both of these were to adapt to my job
environment. I continue to learn and
grow to this day
and hope to always be in a position to do so.
