Description
Hello, I'm recently retired from a 26 year career in IT. I have many skills and abilities.
* I built homes and had my own renovation business prior to switching careers to Computer Programming.
* I have my Business Commerce degree from the University of Manitoba.
* I am a certified yoga instructor and taught at Vayusha Yoga Studio located just south of Vancouver BC, Canada. Feel free to check out my yoga teacher bio at https://www.vayushayoga.com/bios (Scroll to the bottom of the webpage).
* I am very kind, friendly, easy going and grounded.
* I consider myself a hard worker and like to do the best that I can.
* I'm great with coming up with ideas and out of the box solutions.
* I have an unique ability to visualize solutions and picture what something might look like. This enables me to identify pitfalls before they become an issue.
I cleared out all possessions and a home base to enable me to go on a travel adventure seeing where life takes me. I'm physically and emotionally well and cultivate healthy habits. I am non-judgmental and believe the key to happiness lies within ourselves. I look forward to an opportunity to meet new people and experience growth through Workaway.
