12. My suggestions...
1) In the skills section, take the "..." off after the "etc" and just use a single period. It looks less cluttered.

2) In your experience section, you repeated the name and address of the same company 3 times. This is redundant, takes up space, and forces the reader to determine him/herself to determine that you have held different positions at the same location.

What I would do here is the following: List the name and address of the company once at the top of the experience section. Bold it.

Then, Bold and italicize each of your position titles.

3) My opinion is that you should not use periods after statements in a resume. Most items in a resume are fragments rather than complete sentences, and the less unnecessary punctuation on a resume, the better.

4) Make use of bolded font in your education section...I would probably bold the name of the school. If you received a degree from Simon Fraser, state so. Finally, there appears to be and unnecessary space between the listing of your two schools.

Good looking resume! Good luck with your endeavors.
