Experience
- Sabre Systems,
Inc.
Sabre is a contracting company, which has allowed me to work for six projects in the past four years. Ayn Rand would have had a ball with this. "A is not A, A is an E-11 processor and you can program it." I've been, at various times, a software tester, a programmer, a technical writer, a database designer and a web designer.
- The Martinsburg (W.Va.) Daily and Sunday
Journal
Yeah, well, we all make mistakes.
Skills
- Programming Languages: C, C++,
Visual Basic, Unix shell scripts, JavaScript, PL/SQL,
Perl
C's my favorite, maybe because I learned it Germany, maybe because VB sucks. - Human Languages: English, German
We think English is my first language, but since I seem to forget half my words and Jorj finishes my sentences, we're ... - Set theory
- Estimating time without looking at a clock
- Driving a stick shift
Another of those Germany skills. - Web development
The usual: HTML, JavaScript, CGI programming, Active Server Pages, database integration, style sheets - Knotting cherry stems in my mouth
- Baking
Weddings, funerals and Christmas. - Card-carrying member of the evil empire.
- Reading speed: over 300 wpm
Education
- B.S. Mathematics, Drexel University
The highlight of my academic career was not mathematics -- despite abstract algebra (mmm ... algebra) -- but an underground newspaper called The Disseminator, started with Gary Rosenzweig after Drexel shut down the official school paper.
Maybe the highlight was the co-op in Germany working for IBM and living outside Stuttgart. This is where I learned to really speak German, drive a stick shift (Gangschaltung), program in C and Unix, and drink beer.
The highlight of Drexel was not the calculus professor who carried the microphone around and let students grade their own papers (oh yeah, that was a learning experience).
What? You wanted my real resume? Okay, here's something close.
