Res 2: V: "Making bullet points under qualification and
skills more pronounce. I did not see them at first and when I started reading,
the “absence” of them made everything runs into each other."
Frequently Used & Taught Software Solutions
Although I quickly
and effectively learn and teach innumerable programs on a regular basis, the
following list represents the major programs I tend to use and teach the most.
>> Ay: Maybe you are trying to
communicate that you are a fast learner but the word “quickly” is jeopardizing
the quality of your proficiency in my mind...like you just “quickly” learned a
few things about them. Would this work?:
Although I have learned
and taught numerous programs….
--
>> V: …I think there are too much
things bolded for my eyes. The subtitle is bolded and every point under the
subtitle; this makes everything blends into each other. I would recommend just
bolding only the sub titles.
My 200 Programs
I keep well over 200 programs installed on my computer (and that
is not counting standalone applications, and web apps). Because of this, it is not really practical
for me to list out every single program that I use and teach, but hopefully I
can give a useful summary of the most important programs I use on a regular
basis.
>> is there a role that I could
present of myself as an Ongoing Efficiency Developer – AutoHotkey
>> Computer Efficiency Specialist
>> Clean up computers to work
faster…..
>> keep up-to-date w technology –
did not just learn it once
--
>> Virtual
machines/Virtualization (VirtualBox/VMware/Virtual PC/etc.)
>> countless programs... media authoring, technical,
collaborative, (any other categories of software???)
>>
productivity programs: ahk (macos for automating your entire digital work
flow), SyncBack (advanced file and website synchronization)
>> you have to gain an advanced level
I Never Stop Learning Software
Very frequently I am busy researching,
testing, and implementing new software solutions to solve computer challenges and
increase efficiency. Even if I do not know a specific program today, bear in
mind, I might very quickly know it tomorrow, and I can even be ready to teach
it in a few days. I do this kind of thing all the time. If I were to say that I
am a “quick learner” that might be an understatement when it comes to
accomplishing software solutions to make computers work as efficient as
possible.
Software Highlights
& Computer Skills
An
Overview of the Countless Programs and Skills I Teach
>> Ay: the usage of words like “innumerable and
countless.” It may be OK and may not
need altering; however, these words make me uncomfortable for some reason maybe
because I’m not use to them in a formal setting like resumes. Maybe words like
“numerous, a plethora, etc” would still communicate “a lot” but in a less
infinite way.

Conclusion: From Formal
Artistic Education to Self-Taught Computer Education
Although my formal
Graphic Design education was 1999-2003, my self-taught education has been
since 1996, and has been much more defining for my career (as seen in my Work Experience
and in the Software

Campaign
STUDIO
6
Spring 2003 • Gainesville FL
Campaign: Worked with and led team to design complete campaign for vacuum
attachment. Personally helped name the product, and present campaign.
I lead a team where
we were assigned to create and market an entire graphic design campaign, and
even in the face of crisis when one of the assigned team members had the police
called on him, and even though i was bearing the incredible stress of dealing
with police reports right before I was to present before a large group of
people, I still managed to turn arround and lead my team in giving a
presentation that was so well received, that we not only won the campaign, but
we were asked to present again before the league of innovation! (please feel
free to ask me more about these adventures during an interview).
