Programmer Competency Matrix

A while back, I stumbled upon the Programmer Competency Matrix (I think I found it through Hacker News. After reading it, I decided

  1. it was awesome
  2. to make a shorthand of my 'score'
Below is the my score in that shorthand. I state the category and my level of Competency. In addition, I broke up the longer sections into groups of four (mirroring the table layout of the matrix).

Computer Science: 011
Sofware Engineering: 312
Programming: 3333 3332 3312 331
Experience: 1212
Knowledge: 1111 123

As a precaution against the original (the one I first saw) being 404'd and to make sure my shorthand matches up correctly I have archived a copy of the Programmer Competency Matrix that I found at http://www.starling-software.com/employment/programmer-competency-matrix.html

Chance Garcia is a web systems specialist (architect/engineer/manager). I have experience in archtecture design of sites and applications, have engineered the architectured designs, and managed the site and teams that produced them. I'm always open to the opportunity to practice user interface design and web application engineering. Please refer to my resume for more information about my professional life.

Since my primary focus is PHP development, my eye for design isn't my best skill. If anyone someone could suggest a better color scheme for the site, I (and probably all my visitors) would be grateful.
