SPECIALTY

Retired technology and technical marketing writer, Six Sigma Black belt; System Analyst/ Software Engineer; IBM/Microsoft trained AI user

SOFTWARE

• As a former software engineer, I worked for about 30 years in several software environments, including Motorola, Allstate, Discover Card, and United Airlines.
• I worked in all areas of software engineering: software development, support, programming, project management, training, business analysis, website and database administration, technical writing, and Motorola Mobility six-sigma black belt).

MARKETING

• I was an independent contractor and owned my corporation for fourteen years, which gave me a solid foundation for B2B marketing in IT consulting.
• I’m an AWAI-trained (i.e., direct response and B2B) copywriter and a HubSpot-certified Inbound marketer.

B2B

The complex sales buying process involves many decision-makers. You need to find the different decision-maker categories, profiles, and demographics. They could vary depending on the target industry or product being sold. It involves buying processes, marketing strategies, channels, and such. Being a former corporate owner and independent contractor helps.

WRITING

• I own the LinkedIn group Working Writers and AI in Digital Marketing and AI Innovators.
• I took many creative writing and literature courses at Aurora University and the College of DuPage.
• I’ve written technical manuals, training manuals, technology marketing and direct response pieces, creative pieces, and graduate papers.
• I have attended writer’s conferences and local writers' groups.

AI

I use AI as a professor, copilot, and consultant via multiple AI engines.

• I've completed the IBM online AI fundamentals series of courses and Generative AI courses from Microsoft and Data Bricks.
• My background in software engineering with Oracle and MySql databases, math B, A, and Motorola Six-Sigma probability and statistics background.
• My experience with languages like Java, C++, and Python helps me understand AI's inner workings.

Spirituality

I'm a conservative Eastern Catholic, Buddhist - mystic - Yogi — minus any metaphysics, hopeful universalist — and an AI nerd striving to achieve Fr. Richard Rohr's 'non-dual mind ' with help through silent contemplation and spiritual healing methods. I've gained much insight from Fr. Richard Rohr, Fr. Ron Roth, the Byzantine and East Syriac rite churches, and virtual and in-person programs at the Theosophical Society in America.
