Serving the Educational Community since 1976

Thank you for the opportunity to present my credentials for your review. The most important question I can ask is "How can I help you or a family member?"

I am a seasoned training professional. I have been a coach and mentor who has substantial experience and expertise. I am certified as a coach by two different sales training organizations.

For those who need business skills assistance my competencies include training program design and delivery, team building, interviewing and selection skills development, productivity performance, business planning for sales associates. I am a former seminarian and have earned my Master of Arts (MA) in Theology and Pastoral Studies from Washington Theological Union. I am well versed in religious studies, comparative religions, Judaic studies, biblical history, bible, etc.

I have exemplary platform and communications skills and a proven track record in sales training, group facilitation, conflict resolution, customer service sensitivity, operations management, corporate training including technical skills training, tutoring on basic computer skill-sets and programs with both Apple and Windows platforms.

For those individuals looking to improve their personal skills, I am well versed in the subject areas of real estate (especially test preparation of the California Real Estate exam), English, basic computer skills, sales, public speaking and the writing and editing of manuscripts for submission, textbooks for publication and individual articles that you might put on your blog site.

Rest assured, I will not accept any assignment in which I do not feel competent of the subject matter or feel that I cannot meet your particular needs. Your investment of time and money is too precious to squander, and I respect your participation within this coaching - tutor/student relationship.

I look forward to hearing from you.
