Jeffery Watson
@jefferywatson
Entry-level programmer with experience in diverse technical roles.
What I'm looking for
My journey in the tech industry began with a computer programming course at the National Radio Institute, where I honed my skills in Basic, C, and Visual Basic. This foundational knowledge has equipped me to tackle programming challenges, and I am eager to apply my skills in a professional setting. My experience spans various roles, including a Help Desk Technician at Sitel Corporation, where I assisted customers with software and hardware issues, and a Break/Fix Tech at Kaljon LLC, where I installed and removed computers in office environments.
In addition to my technical skills, I have a strong background in teamwork and productivity. While working in a major printing factory in Brooklyn, NY, I was part of a dedicated team that produced an impressive 84,000 books in a single day. This experience taught me the value of collaboration and efficiency in a fast-paced environment. I have also worked as an Account Executive, where I designed advertisements and directed radio and TV commercials, showcasing my creativity and communication skills.
