To utilize my Information Systems experience in a challenging
position with opportunity for advancement.
Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S
Through my ability to quickly learn and apply technical
knowledge, I have acquired a broad base of skills in the
Information Systems field. Building upon a foundation of
Basic and Pascal languages, I have expanded to Informix 4GL
and various scripting tools.
I am adept at troubleshooting, problem solving, and
anticipating future problems to help prevent them. I
spearheaded Y2K mitigation efforts and performed a majority
of the work in 1998-1999.
I have assumed the role of project manager, and have developed
various software applications independently. Working with a
team on a project is one of my strongest areas. Primarily, I
have worked with various companies to develop data
interfaces, such as HL7, between systems running proprietary
software.
