Work History:
I've been described as a "Jack-of-all-Trades". You name it, I've probably done it. Since 1995, I've gotten into working with computers. Interesting thing about computers. If you're competent in them, people will pay you money. If you're really good at using them, people will pay you more and more money!
The following is basic information on what I do and like to work with. This my attempt to get freelance work. If you like what you see, e-mail me and we'll talk.
Operating Platform of choice: Apple Macintosh (Mac OS) 7.1 to current release
Other Platforms I can work with: Windows 3.1, Windows '95 (why?); Windows NT 4.0, & Windows XP (can we say "rip-off" of Apple's OSX?)
And I have a basic understanding of UNIX -- have used Sun OS 5.8 and Apple's Darwin (Mac OSX stable code) (currently enrolled in the CMIS program thru University of Maryland's University College)
Word Processing Software: Microsoft Word (both Mac and Windows varieties), and WordPerfect (PC-only)
