  Classification and Release Analyst

  When I was not problem solving, I was entering complex electronic files into a system for custom's approval. This was not a programming position, however; I used some VBScript inside of our large excel documents to validate and speed up the entering of data. This small amount of VBScript saved about 4 hours of work per day, as well as money saved from avoided government fines for accuracy.
