Consultant for subliminal interventions 1997-2009
This isn’t a resume, I just love this stuff, using it for personal growth and to help others as the opportunities present. I’m self employed in the IS field, and have been consulting since 1994 (Sr. Unix Systems Analyst, infrastructure technologies and web technologies). I hope to work with NLP and Hypnosis on a more professional basis in the future, and there is some volunteer counselling work I’m considering where I could help others, and develop wisdom to go along with my skills (I’ve done some counselling already, and also used these skills to make a difference in some lives… but I haven’t really pushed myself to find the limits yet).
For fun- Salsa, Improv, Martial arts, and Toastmasters (Public Speaking). I’d like to try skydiving someday. Take part in a (salsa) dance competition or performance, compete in a speech contest… . I like the idea of living experiences that can be used as a base for healing or transformational metaphors, I find that first-hand stories (perhaps a bit exaggerated for purposes of change, but containing far more than a grain of truth) make the best stories.
