Raymond Kim’s Summary

I am an IT professional with nearly 20 years of experience. I have been described as a "jack of all trades," and my diverse professional background reflects that description. My experience includes object-oriented and structured programming, web design and development, database administration and development, computer operations, and technical writing and communication.

Additionally, I am a part-time professional-level amateur musician. I play the piano, clarinet, saxophone, and mallet percussion. I am also a songwriter, and my music has been critically acclaimed by music professionals. I am involved with several Albany-area community music groups. I am also available for hire; please view my personal web site at http://www.jukeboxraykim.com
