Biography

I have had, at first glance, what would appear to be a very eclectic background. In addition to having professional career experiences with business icons such as AT&T and IBM, I have held numerous executive positions with start-ups, small business enterprises and have personally owned small businesses. In addition to my business background, my career has included teaching as adjunct for local universities as well as having an interesting stay as Dean of Academic Services at a four-year college.

It is within the context of this career framework, composed of a mix of technology, communications and higher education, that my dissertation may actually make sense - it brings highly advanced communication and technology components into the lifeblood of our educational systems.
