I'm what you might call your 'typical, pretty easy
goin', fun lovin guy' who has lots of interesting friends and who likes
to travel and try new things. One of my major vices is that I'm a
workaholic. Work keeps me busy and social. Have no fear though; I do squeeze
ample time to hang with friends and family (just not as much as they would
want me too though). I don't claim to be a genius like some of my friends
and I don't have a trophy case full of awards for athletics or intellect
- in fact my trophy case is full of TOYS!
As for physical appearance, in a nutshell, just picture the Pillsbury Doughboy...short,
pokable, and oven baked. Oh yeah! Don't forget the wack-o sense of humour!
I'm just basically one SUPERBIGKID!!!
Always thriving on new and challenging experiences, I joined this program,
to expand my understanding of ICT and it's effects on the world and to do
some self-growth.
While certainly not a stranger to either teaching or technology, I aspire
to combine these two interests in some manner like creating a career in
developing educational on-line resources for the disciplines of arts and
social sciences...after I do some more globetrotting.
If you ever need a friendly smile, a listening ear (if you can pry the headphones
off my head), a wacky sense of humor, and/or the occasional dancing partner,
keep me in mind.
Hobbies:
Drawing, photography, cooking, computers, playing billiards, cards, recreational
sports and socializing.
Favorite Saying:
“Its all good.”
“A little somethin' somethin'.”
Favorite Songs:
“One” by U2
“Redemption song” by Bob Marley
“Groove is in the Heart” by Dee-Lite
“Groove Jet” by Spiller
Why did you join the program?
Partly to avoid the frustration of finding a career, but also to do something
challenging, exciting and life altering. I wanted to use my skills to make
a difference somehow.
What did you achieve?
Sixteen good friends. One unbelievable experience and uncountable good memories.
What was the funniest thing that happened on the program?
Listening to my counterpart, Olardo, talk in his sleep … in patois.
What are your future plans?
To get some temporary work upon returning to Canada while I investigate
the possibility of working with another organization that deals with bridging
the gap between the digital divide.
