Instructor
I've worked at various jobs throughout my life, but my goal at each has remained constant.
I have a thirst for knowledge and a desire to work efficiently. When I learn something new that helps me achieve my purpose, I like to share it with others so they, too, can improve their lives.
I've written books as well as articles to share what I've learned. I've created web sites and produced videos.
But claims are not proof.
Different people learn in different ways. I invite people to sample my work to see if what I offer can benefit them.
