Don't remember if i responded. Besides all the great things you are doing, you might consider being a mentor -- like Big Brother.. WE NEED HISPANIC male role models in our community.. It seems you have done much already with two sons.. but it would be massive... to one that doesn't have much else. I did , with a young 6th grade for a year and I have to tell you , I LEARNED so much.. There are many ways to connect.. This is just one. All my best ! a
Hi Rick,
I would be interested in networking around here. Please keep me updated about anything you might know!
Thanks so much for contacting me,
Sincerely,
Mariana.
Hello Rick,
How long have you been in the DC area? I just leaving my cocon I guess trying to meet other professionals in the area. I see you have experience overseas with private industry, i guess... Many years of experience with NGOs and focusing in Latin American programs are not enough for finding a job without networking humm... I am glad I am making contacts with other hispanic profesionals in the DC area. Thanks for your message.
Rick: Your interests are similar to mine in technology and government.. Your hobbies are also of interest. I hope we can share insights. I appreciate your discipline and thank you, also, for your Service.
