Since 1992, I have worked on projects to streamline the business practices for a leading paper manufacturing company. My current job is to maintain knowledge of new and emerging technologies in the computer field that can improve the bottom line of the company. I maintain areas of local and wide area networks that support manufacturing facilities throughout the United States. I installed internet connectivity and email for the entire corporation, and have assumed the webmaster position. This project gave me the opportunity to work with everything needed to support an internet site.
I started with the company in 1992 as a computer programmer. I began my career writing business systems from written specifications for an IBM mainframe. I have used many computer-programming languages such as COBOL, FoxPro, C++, PowerBuilder, Pascal, and JAVA to write computer programs. In this position I used my mathematics degree to develop algorithms that would maximize CPU utilization and write efficient computer programs.
After six months, I was promoted to a Systems Analyst. In this position I designed computer software for business systems such as accounts payable, time management, steam collection from turbine generators, sales systems, inventory management and many others. I used my mathematics knowledge every day for compiling statistics and calculus and numerical analysis for modeling complex software systems. I was on the forefront in developing client-server applications, and implementing new Information Systems architectures with my company.
After two years as a Systems Analyst I was promoted to my current position.
