Over the run of my professional life I worked with a variety of languages, procedural such as C, Pascal, and CDC internal languages, Tutor and Micro Tutor, to OOPs languages such as C++ and Java.

I have also had Employment rolls on a support staff working for the local phone internet provider, with Best Buy for Business, inventing the Support process for this group as well as with the Geek Squad providing support for the Geek Squad software, fixing bugs and administering access to their applications.

My work includes working with Window applications, JAVA servlets, JSP, with both applications and servlets communicating with a database.
