-  $\cdot{}$ A customer wanted the ability to show sections of stored surveys
-  conditionally.  For legacy reason, this had to be done in CFML and was further
-  constrained by existing surveys which could were not under our control.  After
-  finding the relevant CFML, I constructed additions to the in-house developed
-  markup language and corresponding processing CFML.  This feature has been in
-  use for the last six months without affecting other survey features.
-  \newline{}
-  $\cdot{}$ Motivated by the difficult setup process, I decided to automate the
-  setup of new Coldfusion developer stations.  Adobe's coldfusion installer
-  script has user interaction, so initial scripting was done with Expect.  To
-  make the installer more maintainable by the other programmers, this was
-  converted to ruby and bash.  Several development systems have since used
-  this installer.
-  \newline{}
-  $\cdot{}$ Because the old svn systems were difficult to work with, I converted
-  several of them to git repos served by gitosis.  I set up the gitosis server
-  and taught some coworkers how to use ssh-keys for easier interaction with it.
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item
+  The old svn systems were difficult to work with, so I converted them
+  to git repos served by gitosis and later gitolite.  Thanks to ssh keys,
+  Visiontree is now able to merge branches more often and more easily.
+    \item
+  The git systems mentioned above are used by a lot of people, internal devs
+  as well as third parties.  After helping several fellow developers
+  serially and individually, I created a class to explain how to use git.
+  I have given this class several times.  Developers from around the country
+  have attended.
+    \item
+  One former developer created a suite of ruby scripts to hand HL7 protocol
+  communications.  To make the service more reliable, I have documented the
+  process of installing the scripts as different users and on new machines,
+  as well as automated parts of it.
+    \item
+  A customer wanted the ability to show sections of stored surveys
+  conditionally.  I made additions to the survey markup, ``vtjson'', and
+  processing code, while remaining compatible with existing surveys.
+    \item
+  I decided to automate the setup of new Coldfusion developer stations with
+  Expect.  Later, I translated into ruby and bash, languages the other
+  developers are more familiar with.
+    \item
+  VisionTree's surveys have syntax errors which sometimes cause customer
+  data loss.  In order to combat this, I generated an error reporter.  Errors
+  were presented by an internal website and a gedit plugin.

-  The last project I created at Avaak is a system monitoring tool which spoofed
-  Avaak's clients to test their servers.  This project weighed in at 3kloc of
-  Ruby.  I also created a test framework for the firmware on the router product
-  which cross-compiled unit tests, loaded the binary onto the target hardware,
-  ran the tests and reported results.  An earlier project had invariant image
-  feature extraction in C.  Later, I used PCA, and Fischerfaces analysis under
-  the supervision of Serge Belongie, Ph.D. UCSD.  My first project was a
-  firmware loader for an embedded camera hardware using mspgcc and C.
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item
+  Avaak needed to stress and log its wireless camera and server to pin down the
+  communication breakdown.  My tools revealed that the server's memory maxed
+  under a high number of camera connections.
+    \item
+  Sometimes the servers would be up but not doing their job correctly, so Avaak
+  asked me to modify the simulators to monitor the servers more intelligently.
+  Several months after I left, it would still send me detailed failure reports.
+    \item
+  A chem lab at UCSD wanted to characterize a reusable chemical sensor's
+  appearance change.  Working under the direction of several professors, I
+  developed quantifiers for the amount and type of change of the sensors.
