I am seeking a position as either a Programmer or Instructor or a combination of the two. I have gained extensive in-depth knowledge of the Progress development environment as a Technical Instructor for Progress for ten years. I also have previous programming experience using SQL with Oracle. My focus in Progress has been with the 4GL, GUI development, SmartObjects, and Webspeed. I have worked with Progress versions 6, 7, 8, and 9. I live in the San Francisco Bay area and would not want to relocate. Please see my resume for additional skills and work history. It is included at the end of this message.

Thank you,

Cheryl Poon
