Objectives:

I am presently the webmaster within the marketing group of a plastics manufacturing

corporation. I have developed skills not only in designing and building web sites, but in

get people to web sites than I do building the sites themselves. As such, I would like to

shift my career goals into internet marketing. I am especially interested in employment

per-click management, email blasts and web 2.0 promotion (blogs, YouTube and social

media). These are all responsibilities I have held and demonstrated proficiency in.
