Objectives
It is my desire to use the considerable Graphic Design, Desktop Publishing, and Web Design skills I have acquired in the Print and/or Web publication fields. I would like to learn even more about coding languages such as Java and Perl and scripting languages (like JavaScript) and use that knowledge to further company goals.
Although my approach is that of a "team" member, I enjoy finding solutions for problems and initiating new directions as an "idea man" and working independently. I am adept at using Dreamweaver, FrontPage and Homesite and MS and DreamWeaver UltraDev Web development editors.
