Until recently, I was firmly rooted in the international marketing department of a dental manufacturer. Six-and-a-half years of constant airplane travel finally got to me, though. Now I work as the technical trainer for my company. I sometimes miss the constant exposure to other cultures, but for the most part, I'm glad to be a little more grounded now.

Speaking of travel, I was a travel advisor for almost a year, but when I disappeared off the face of the earth (or at least the continent) for awhile, I apparently had my status revoked. :( Where was I? Why, gathering material for more epinions, of course! My quest is to prove myself worthy of receiving that elusive privilege yet again. After all, everyone needs a goal in life.

"When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes." ~ Erasmus
