My Skill Set

Here I provide a description of my skills. Please pay special attention to the descriptor for the particular skill. For your benefit, I specifically describe each skill with the pertinent adjective (in descending order of competence): expertise, proficiency, experience, and exposure. If you require expertise and I only have exposure, it is not worth sending an inquiry about the opportunity. On the other hand, if I seem to match your requirements, I encourage you to submit an inquiry and we will explore the opportunity further together.
