Dear Potential Employer;

	I am a recent Master of Computer Science graduate from the
University of Manitoba. I am available for immediate employment
and I am willing to relocate. I am also very willing to travel
extensively as a part of any job. I would prefer to work in either
a language or XWindows development group, as I have expertise in
both these areas. 
I have worked on such projects as a simulation program in a SUN
UNIX environment. This was a team project and I was leading two 
other programmers. I used this job to gain the C and XWindows
programming skills I have maintained. I also recently spent one year
teaching myself C++ object-oriented programming techniques. Much of
this time was spent implementating my thesis project. My thesis
implements a visual programming language of my own design, which consists
of over 9000 lines of C++ code. During my thesis writing, I used software on
UNIX, Macintosh and MSDOS platforms. In addition, I have written compilers
on UNIX and Macintosh systems from scratch and using compiler-construc-
tion tools. Compilers, languages, user interfaces, and operating systems
are my main areas of interest.

My resume is included. If any of my skills are of interest to you,
do not hesitate to contact me. My permanent address and phone number are
at the top of this posting.

                                                  Yours Sincerly

		DETAILED EMPLOYMENT RECORD
9/91-12/91 - DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA

	Employed part-time (four hours per week) to continue
 work on the fish growth system that I worked on during my summer employment.
 I worked to add a fish density bar-graph, and postscript printing
 ability to the multitank system. General maintenance on both the multi and
 single fish growth systems was performed.

5/91-7/91 - DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA
	Continued work from previous summer. Worked on 
 creating graphic line-chart routines for the single fish growth system. 
 The ability to print these graphs to a postscript printer was added.
 Added a command logging system and performed general maintenance on the
 multitank fish growth system.
7/90-8/90 - DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA

	Employed to continue work on a system that simulated
 fish growth in multiple tanks under controlled conditions. The system
 was developed on SUN SPARCstation 1's using the C language and the 
 XView toolkit. Majority of work involved the creation of graphics
 routines using Xlib graphics to display fish distribution using histograms.
 As well routines to print growth statistics textually and an interface 
 to control the appearances of the graphs were developed.

5/87-8/87
MANITOBA TELEPHONE SYSTEM
	Employed as a programmer in the Network Planning section. Developed
 programs in Dbase III to aid in the tracking of telephone trunk lines. Work
 involved developing several programs which converted data supplied elec-
 tronically from a mini-computer to Dbase format. Also developed a program to
 convert telephone traffic data supplied in Lotus 1-2-3 format to Dbase format.
 All programs had simple forms type interfaces to aid the user. All the work
 was done on an IBM PC/AT computer running MSDOS.
