Summary
Highly-skilled Programmer with 5 years in software design, development and integration. Advanced knowledge of structure text and ladder logic programming languages. Logical and professional with excellent problem-solving skills. Starting at the "lowest" level has given myself the opportunity to understand why and how automation is the future. Being self driven, motivated, and loyal to the team has helped further my career. Also, in my current role, it has helped develop the skills to multi-task and work with multiple teams on multiple projects to accomplish deadlines.
