I have developed a range of skills from database administration to DHTML to graphic design using Photoshop. My ability to combine all of these elements to create great websites and client applications will be valuable to anyone in whose employ I may be. I have the ability to visualize projects, optimize code, and streamline creative processes to deliver both speed and quality to virtually any size project.
I love to work in a team environment and where needed I can step up and lead a project. I can also create an entire solution from the ground up with all elements included if need be.
My skills include DHTML, AJAX, MSSQL, VB/C#.NET, Photoshop, Actionscript, and Flash. This skillset is more than enough to bring to life any ideas that may come to mind.

Description
Adobe Flash Web Application
2 yrs
4.0
2008
Currently in development, this project is written in Adobe Flash CS3 and vb.net. This project is both a user interface for managing user registrations and an informational website to interest site browsers. All db interaction is managed through actionscript and vb.net pages. I created the database structure, set up views and stored procedures and normalized the data as well as tuned all indexes.
This project combines 4 technologies:
1. Flash
2. VB.NET for db interaction
3. MSSQL for data persistence.
4. Adobe Photoshop for graphic design.
CSS/HTML
5 yrs
5.0
2008
I have a very high level of CSS/HTML expertise. From creating pure CSS pages to editing massive CSS documents, I can make websites look the way you want them to.
JavaScript/DHTML
4 yrs
5.0
2008
I have a high level of JS expertise. I am able to resolve issues with existing scripts very quickly or create new ones tailor fit to any situation.
Microsoft SQL Server
4 yrs
5.0
2008
I have the ability to write large joins, stored procedures, custom CLR stored procedures, or just about any type of SQL script necessary for the situation.
VB.NET/C#.NET
3 yrs
5.0
2008
I am currently employed with a software development firm. I have completed numerous web applications as well as client applications in VB.NET. I have written 2 projects in C#.
The largest of the projects was a claims processing and enrollment application for a dental/vision insurance company.
The claims project allowed the insurance company to feed it flat text files and have the claims processed automatically. This project required very creative matching algorithms as the input data was not always formatted correctly and the general data integrity was poor.
The enrollment project performed as serious of logical operations to determine from a limited set of data whether a record represent a policy termination, reinstatement, addition or update to previous entering information.
Both projects made heavy use of list and array data structures as well as database interaction using MSSQL and IBM informix.
I completed all aspects of the project:
1. Graphic Design work in Photoshop
2. HTML and CSS work in Visual Studio 2005
3. Coding and testing in Visual Studio 2005
4. Writing and testing of stored procedures, creation of database tables, views and indexing tuning for performance.
5. Normalization of all data tables in the database.
6. Creation of business objects in code to mirror the relationships in the database.
7. Deployment of project, maintenance, and client interaction to resolve deployment and testing issues.
The project were deployed on an intranet so they are available for public viewing, however; a demonstration can be given upon request.

I am, however, fully capable of cross browser coding and design.
