Resume Opinions?

Decided I'm going to at least start job hunting for a job in the field. This is what i've come up with so far. What do you think? If you were a hiring manager or HR would you be interested?

Thanks!

I like the overall style, but I think you could benefit from a little more leading. Especially in the page header and the section dividers. That should help it feel less cramped and crowded.

As somebody who regularly reviews applications, I can say that I like your resume.

I'll look in to what you are talking about Patrick.

Thanks David!

And James, I would be looking for some type of Web Development job, ideally in some team environment as I don't have much experience with that and it would be a welcome addition to the resume. As stated in another post it would probably have some type of design aspect, but that really isn't my focus. The industry that's it's in really isn't that important, I think I would like to work for some firm that takes on a range of clients to get my hands dirty with everything instead of just one specific type.
