For 23 years I taught (band and chorus) in several school districts around Illinois. I have a bachelors degree and a masters degree, both in education. My interest in computers started even before that though.

In 1967 I took my first college computer class.  That was the era of the Illiac, room sized machines that ran with punch cards!

Then in 1984 I got my first PC, an Apple IIe. Remember the internet was born in 1993. It was also the year I began seeing a therapist regularly! You don’t need to be sick to get better.

In 1998 I returned to college and earned a degree in computer science. I then built a business that I called “Computer Tutor” and sold it in 2007.

After that I founded Life Strategy Associates, for me a nice blend of teaching, computers, and life coaching. This site is a product of Life Strategy Associates.
