What do you do for a living?

I work as a software and web developer for UniTek Global Services which is based in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania.

What other work experience do you have?

I worked for Bristol Myers-Squibb's Software Management team for four years.  I started off as a summer intern in 2007 and upon graduating with my Bachelor's degree, I was hired as a Data Analyst II in December of 2008.  I dealt with creating pivot tables, using advanced Excel formulas, writing macros in VBA, and writing HTAs and JScripts to manipulate one or more Excel files at a time.  I also helped developed some of the frontend features of the teams online database interface.  This included looking over some Perl code and even writing JavaScript solutions, one of which is a publicly available light-weight, cross-browser compatible date picker which doesn't rely on an JavaScript libraries, called ezCalendar.  Lastly, I was responsible for administrating the team's SharePoint site.

What education did you receive?

After three-and-a-half years of college, I received a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, from Kutztown University, in December of 2008.  A year later, due to a five year program, I received a Master's degree in Computer Science, from the same university.

What project(s) are you working on now?

Besides periodically updating this site, I spend a lot of my extra time working on updates for a fully customizable JavaScript library called jPaq.

How can I contact you?

The best way is by email.  My email address is webmaster@gotochriswest.com.  Feel free to send me JavaScript, jPaq, VBA, or even math questions.  I personally love to be challenged as far as math is concerned.  One of my biggest regrets is not taking up mathematics as a major area of concern in college.

Do you have a profile on any social networking sites?
