Who You Calling A Jesse?

Hi, my name is Vincent. I’m the Co-op student working for Jesse right now. So for the next 3 months or so, I’ll be involved in a few web development projects for him.

Let me say a little bit about my background. I’ve been studying in Computer Science now (in the same university) for 4 years already. And I’ll graduate next year in Winter. In the past, I have worked mostly as a web developer. I have done a little bit of this and that, both front-end and back-end.

This work term is my last one, even though it’s actually my 5th one. I could have done 6 work terms, but last winter I chose to skip one so I could go to study at UBC. I took their 4-month Multimedia program because I wanted to see whether I like doing more visual work. So now here I am, doing both front-end and back-end work for UW. Hopefully, I can use what I’ve learned at UBC during my term here.

So what have I been doing now? I’m doing some interface improvements for CPA (Communication and Public Affair department) websites and creating a guideline for them. I’m also fixing some scripts for the UW search-related functions.

I’m looking forward to working here in the next few months. So far I’ve enjoyed my work and hopefully it continues to be great too.
