MY QUALIFICATIONS
I am currently employed by Florida Atlantic University (FAU), at the SeaTech campus in Dania Beach, Florida, a division of the Ocean Engineering Department. I have been a word processor for the past 19 years. I also have an Associate in Arts degree from Nasson College for the Secretarial program. For FAU, I have typed million-dollar technical proposals for the professors for agencies such as the National Science Foundation, NASA, United States Navy, Naval Surface Warfare Center, The Center for Hazardous Waste Materials, to name a few. I have typed and arranged the layout for "camera ready" technical papers to be published in various national engineering magazines. A portion of my work has been with equations, graphics, and tables. A brochure on the Ocean Engineering Department, complete with photos, was produced by me, as well as agendas for symposiums held at SeaTech where my office is located. I am proficient on Microsoft Word for Windows, Word 97, and Word 2000, PowerPoint (my specialty), WordPerfect, and have had experience with Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT. I also have some working knowledge of ExceI, Microsoft Publisher, and HTML web design, basic and advanced. I have designed approximately 100 personal web pages, after mastering HTML on my own. These include my regular barbaralarkin.com homepage, my original illuminations homepage, my FAU homepage, my other personal web pages, my short pictures-set-to-music web pages, and my web design business. I really enjoy creating web pages, and am getting more into web design at FAU where I have been assisting with updating our department's web pages and faculty resumes. I developed a mailto form for prospective students to use to request information on our undergraduate and graduate programs. I have designed several slide presentations in PowerPoint, complete with photographs, musical backgrounds, and animated special effects. PowerPoint is my passion and a favorite hobby of mine! I plan to design a number of additional web pages and presentations in the future and possibly even an e-book or e-zine.
For my own pleasure, I write stories, essays, and poetry. Several of my original poems have been selected by the International and National Libraries of Poetry for publication in their anthologies, and two of my poems are on their "Sounds of Poetry" audiocassettes and CDs. I have received an International Poet of Merit Award from the International Society of Poets, as well as a Photography Award from the International Library of Photography, where one of photographs is published in their book, "Passing Memories". I have produced, from the writing to the finished product, a booklet of my original poems and a book about my childhood for my grandchildren, as well as several other booklets of short stories. I also create greeting and Christmas cards with an original poem or message included. So, you see, I love to write, type, create documents and design web pages.
My work is aesthetic, polished, professional, and accurate. Professors at the University come to me for advice on computer programs, spelling, and grammar.
MY GOAL
What you write is sometimes the only contact another person will have with you. That person will form an opinion of you based upon the impression he or she receives as they read what you have written. Therefore, I believe that your written material should represent you favorably. My goal is to make you look good to those who read your documents, and that the impression they form of you will be favorable.
