| Introduction | Recovering hi-tech industry exec. how did I ever manage to squeeze work into my busy schedule? An Army brat, we lived all over.Yukon to 'Down East', soon found sailing to South America more exciting and a whole lot better way to pass the more severe months of a Canadian winter.. thus began my life long love of things Latino and marino (not ONLY the friendly brown skinned chicas, either)..Events soon found me in the great state of Texas where upon realizing life ashore was a lot tougher and even potentially dangerous, was mostly motivated by fear to once again seek the luxury of higher education while toiling 6 days per week for the (named for a flower)company that made contented cows famous and paid for all my learning costs as long as I delivered passing grades. Married, divorced,accepted, rejected and abandoned at least a couple of times, with many wonderful woman friends and lovers between times; over-educated in Engineering and business.. East Coast (128) and West Coast (Silicon Valley) alumnus.. "Big Eight" experience (many now'defendants'), consulting for venture capitalists; Livin la vida pura in Costa Rica; wonderful novia, happiest time in my life. |
