About Me:
Brazilian, living in North Carolina, USA since 1996.
I am married. My wife is a PhD in Chemistry and researcher at North Carolina State University.
One daughter.
****My Career****
I have been a computer professional for more than 18 years: from Novell server administrator, Microsoft servers administrator, Technical Writer to Computer Security System Administrator.
I worked at one Catholic educational organization, my personal company, TekSystems, Lockheed Martin, IBM and CSC.
Prior to computers I used to be a teacher and a professor.
****My Entrepreneurship Quest****
Internet marketing is a great trend and a challenge. Every day I learn more about it and decided to spread the "Funded Sponsoring Marketing" ( http://www.payitforward4profits.com/torresinc) tool for the the ones who want to learn how to promote their business online.
****My Hobbies****
Reading is my great passion. Lately I have been reading motivational books: Robert Kyiosaki, Stephen Covey, Robert Allen, Jim Rohn, Dennis Waitley among others.
Walking and biking are my preferred physical activities.
****My Personal Mission Statement****
"To help people to achieve more, improve their health, protect the environment and support the needy children worldwide".
Please support Children's Hunger Fund ( http://www.childrenshungerfund.org )
****My Other Activities****
I'm also the secretary and former president of the Brazilian Association of the Triangle (Chapel Hill, Durham, Raleigh - NC): a non profit organization founded 13 years ago to support Brazilian immigrants in North Carolina. Like my wife, they come to finish their masters and PhDs in different fields and universities.
