You'll get better feedback if you provide a PDF or DOC. It's very hard to read that pic.

I noticed a few things that you could do to improve on this.

The resume should begin with a professional summary. I will link you to some good examples of how to write a competent professional summary. The skills section can be incorporated/converted into a summary.

Within the work experience section, each job description should begin with a high-level overview detailing your daily duties and responsibilities, commonly used technologies, etc. Then you can use bullet points to highlight key accomplishments, projects, promotions, etc. Don't rely solely on bullet points in this manner.

This is an excellent resume guide with example resumes, a huge list of action verbs, sample summaries, etc. Some of the resumes use "Objective" sections, but I recommend ignoring those in favor of a properly written "Professional Summary" section.
