What Do I Do in My Spare Time to Keep My Programming Skills Sharp Between Jobs

This Summer, I’ve been studying Salesforce, Agentforce (AI) & Microsoft Azure. As you can see in the “Points Earned via These Learning Paths” section on this page, I’ve been tracking what I’ve been learning. I also use that as a jumping off point, to return to those learning paths. I’ve also been learning .NET MAUI with C#.

Career Highlights

During my illustrious career, I have:

  1. Created a video game, which teaches 6th graders—who use ST Math—the mathematical concept of Absolute Values.
  2. Worked at 3 motion picture studios: Disney, Fox Studios & NBCUniversal (where I built a video player engine for E! Entertainment).
  3. Saw the URL for a website which I built for Acura, be displayed on TV during the 2016 Super Bowl.
  4. Worked on NASA Send Your Name to Mars website, which placed my name & 2.4 million names onto the Insight lander spacecraft on dime sized microchips, before the rocket launched the Insight Lander up to the planet Mars. (Artist’s concept showing the sensors, cameras & instruments & Chip location on the Insight Lander.)
  5. Built an entire RFP Engine for AT&T.

What Are My Strengths & Skills?

  1. Art & Design
  2. Front-End Programming
  3. Back-End Programming
  4. Database Programming
  5. DevOps
  6. Traditional Computer Science Training

Let’s take a look at some of my skills:

Art & Design

I tend to be an artist who can code. Most programmers are analytical & can’t design art. I have Adobe® Photoshop® and Illustrator® design skills. I studied digital imaging for 2 full years in college, as an art major. I also have 3D Modeling & 3D Computer Animation skills. I was studying Maya® & starting to use Unity 3D.

Front-End Programming

I have web development programming skills in HTML, CSS & JavaScript. Since I can find creative solutions to solving bugs, most I.T. recruiters tend to give me front-end development roles. That results in having my resumes show front-end heavy development roles. I have also used Angular, Aurelia, jQuery, React & Vue.

Back-End Programming

In the past, I was an object oriented (OO) PERL developer, before I switched to using PHP. I have used ASP, C#, CFML, JSP, PERL, PHP & Ruby on Rails.

Database Programming

I have back-end programming & database stored procedure (SPROC) building skills. In the RDBMS camp, I have used Access, MySQL, Oracle, PostGreSQL, SQL Server. In the NO SQL camp, I have used Mongo.

DevOps

I sometimes do low level Linux work to setup CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery) pipelines for companies.

Traditional Computer Science Training

I learned to program in Basic, Turbo Pascal, C, Delphi & Visual Basic.
