Résumé

Robert Heath

Programmer

In my six years with OnRamp Access, Inc., I’ve been a part of both our Technical Support/Networking team and our Programming team. As a result, I have a thorough understanding of the entire development process from the project’s inception to supporting
and maintaining the finalized site.

I have widespread experience developing custom programmed solutions including dynamic, database driven content management and eCommerce solutions on both Unix and Windows platforms. In addition, I have created the graphic design as well as logos for several websites. I have extensive knowledge of various software packages and enthusiasm for researching, testing and implementing new technologies to find innovative and cost effective solutions for a variety of customers.

Motivated, fueled by a desire to be successful, and driven to reach your goals.

What I have to offer:
Unparalleled passion and commitment, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve success.

Leadership Style

My leadership style can be characterized as innovative. I tend to be inventive and proactive in creating new ways to get things done, bringing a sense of confidence to most things I do. I’m not afraid to take risks if it means finding a new, better way.

Work Personality

I am more passionate than composed when it comes to my work personality. I’m someone who gets emotionally charged about work issues and who brings a high level of energy and intensity to most things I do. This passion can be quite motivating and stimulating.
