"My e-Portfolio has allowed me to put a more detailed description of my resume in a single place that looks both intriguing and professional. I plan on using it for the next step either further education or a career in order to show my capabilities. Interestingly, creating this website also gave me the confidence to apply for an internship that I will begin in Fall 2008 updating the Digital chart of the World that is used all over the globe as a geographic resource."
