Hello Team!
Raised by an English teacher in a family of educators, content creation was a pathway to my personal, academic, and professional development. I wrote poetry at age 7 and computer programs at age 9. I performed within the top 5-10% in all academic areas, with Math and Writing abilities ranking as my "strengths" atop our 1500 enrollment high school.
Throughout college, I acquired the ability to write and learn across an interdisciplinary curriculum plan, centered on Psych, Education, and other Social Sciences heavy in writing for examination and assessment. As a side job, I tutored others who struggled across the curriculum offered by introducing new ways for them to grasp the same content, yet presented in a way that appealed to their individualized learning styles.
After graduating, Psych offered limited opportunities, so I focussed on education technology, landing at Apple Computer, where I excelled for 8 years. I then lead business development roles for Blackboard and a few other learning, assessment, and collaboration management system companies before launching my own LLC to consult with startups brilliant in product ideas but green in executing business practices.
Today. A semi-retired corporate executive approaching the completion of my Ph.D. in Performance Psych seeks to enrich your Team with compelling insight. The constant quest for knowledge and eagerness to pay forward my experience to help others elevate their perormance. A servant leader by nature, I am driven to be the best and to lead by example.
This should provide some cursory context on the following service capabilities:
*Sales Coaching
*Career counseling
*Performance Psychology
*Education systems
*Information technology systems
*Teaching and learning (pedagogy)
*Managing life events like death, divorce, and other loss
*Investing with discipline
...to name a few.
Thanks for your consideration, and I look forward to exploring further!
