After 40 years in the IT industry, mostly in Data Management and Architecture in large companies such as PayPal, eBay and Cisco, I recently retired and want to give back to the community. Having worked with thousands of professionals in the USA, India, Brunei and the Middle East, I have successfully mentored hundreds of Men and Women over long periods both in person and virtually, I am eager, willing and capable of mentoring you, whether on a professional or personal basis.
My approach to Mentoring is simple, yet effective: I connect with you as a Person, not just as an Engineer or Professional, to first listen and understand both your current state and challenges. I will then help you and guide you to finding the right solution(s) and approaches. To use a metaphor, I will "Teach you to Fish", not just talk to you about bait and tackle and fishing rods... Along the way, we will also look at integrating your Life with your Work, and find that balance that we all crave...
At 60+, I have seen it all - Loss, Massive change, Successes and Failures, Dislocation and Disruption, and yet remain standing humbly, shaped by these experiences. I am a husband of one, father of two and grandfather of three and live in Beautiful San Diego, California. I am also an author, editor, speaker at tech conferences and can help you speak, write and express yourself with grace and confidence.
