As a Programmer...

I utilize a variety of languages and technical skills to fulfill requirements and resolve tasks ranging from server side php and SQL code, application based java, c#, or c++, and even front end html, I have the ability and flexibility to get jobs done.

Projects:

Context Search Chrome Extension

I really like the feature in google chrome that allows the user to search for a highlighted word in the google search engine, this is called a context search. I decided it would be cool to be able to search media sites that I use frequently such as Netflix and Google Music for the songs or movies I read about online. There are a lot of extensions that I can use to do this but I decided making it myself would be more lightweight, the results are below

In the picture below is the script to search a highlighted word.

I learned that if I try to make more than one context menu item at once chrome will collapse them into one menu item, so I had to write the code below so different search engines will be submenus of the one context menu item.
