SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS	Adaptable, quick to learn, a hard worker M.Sc. in Computer Science from UBC Research focus in Web Services and Aspect-Oriented Programming
EDUCATION
2004 - 2006 GPA  91%	University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC. M.Sc. Computer Science specializing in aspect-oriented software engineering and programming languages.
2001 - 2004 GPA  88%	University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC. B.Sc. Honours in Computer Science with Software Engineering option.
EXPERIENCE
09.2005 - 08.2006	Master's Thesis, University of BC. Supervisor: Dr. Eric Wohlstadter. Developed a new Java based aspect-oriented language for XML transformations which helps to better modularize transformations of SOAP and HTTP messages at the server-side. It performs an automatic content conversion to XMLBeans, allows type checked content modifications, and has a first-class support for pointcuts defined on XML content (in Java). A part of the thesis resulted in a separate library for addressing parts of an XML Schema document with an XPath expression written for instances of that Schema. The library may be used, for example, to get at compile-time an approximate set of nodes that will be matched at run-time ("xpath-on-schema" project at SourceForge).
05.2005 - 08.2005	Intern, Asynchronous Design Group, Sun Labs, Menlo Park, CA, USA. Designed and developed a graphical user interface for a Layout-vs- Schematic tool, which is now a part of the open-source Electric VLSI Design System used by tens of thousands engineers worldwide (in Java).
09.2002 - 04.2005	Teaching Assistant in Computer Science classes at the University of BC. (Software Engineering, Databases, Functional and Logic Programming).
04.2004 - 06.2004	Built my personal e-commerce website using ASP/IIS/SQL Server.
09.2003 - 04.2004	Honours thesis, University of BC. Supervisor: Dr. Joel Friedman. Developed a secret sharing scheme with several extra features (in Java).
01.2003 - 04.2003	Lead Software Developer. On demand of Baltimore Technologies, Toronto, designed and built an Eclipse Test Manager plug-in on top of JUnit in a team of seven students (in Java).
MAJOR COURSE PROJECTS
UI Design (team of 4 students)	Designed, evaluated, and created a prototype of a new navigation system for the University Bookstore website. Conducted user studies.
