Over the past year, I have been studying computer programming. Along with updating our church website weekly, I have built online database driven projects with mySQL and PHP, built email forms in PHP and integrated them into existing web pages, and automated our church website to reduce the number of manual updates it requires. I am continuing to learn and gain experience in computer programming and am eager to rapidly expand my programming abilities.
