Interests: I am a "Senior Citizen" based in the USA with over 45 years of diverse experience in the global workforce. My primary focus has been on managing information technology Projects, Programs, and Portfolios in both the private and public sectors. My secondary focus has been on teaching people about various subjects, mostly at the University (both Undergraduate and Graduate) and Continuing Education (Management and Executive) levels, including ESL, Management, and Business Administration. My wife is a native of Ecuador, South America and she has been my #1 ESL student over the past 43 years. I have traveled to 24 countries on 4 continents and have learned a lot about many of the world's cultures during that time. I earned a Bachelor's degree from the University of Connecticut and a Master's degree from Columbia University. I have also received certifications as a Project Management Professional, a Quality Manager, a Master Black Belt in Lean Six Sigma, and a Scrum Master. I look forward to getting to know you, too!
