I've worked for more than 13 years, designing products for web ventures, from 3-person initiatives to medium-large industry. Strong Presentation and Negotiation Skills have been key to this work (in addition to the full monte; infrastructure, database design, core algorithms, scaling, backed and frontend frameworks, test-ability, compliance, and UI/UX + SEO).
I also design technology & products by drawing from a history of fabrication, prototyping, sourcing, and scientific research (applied physics). I am a practicing sculptor, and establish new product aesthetics via my own approach to engineering fluid-mechanical processes. From this work in water, I have built a broad & deep knowledge-base on the application of fluid phenomenon to industry needs.
I have lead successful small-capitalization stages, wrote grants & engaged program officers, developed teams and timelines, design of experiments, measurement, and business development.

I suspect my teenager is using illegal drugs; what should I do? (That is, unless you're one of those parents who thinks it's ok to steer your children away from a solid educational foundation) |

How do you respond to a teenager who declares that he isn't interested in college? @Beofett I'm commenting here so that this thread is not misleading. You and the small fraction like you are not the mainstream case - and your suggestions are misleading, and inappropriate for recommendations. You and I are in similar situations, and I'd never advocate it prosaically. |

How do you respond to a teenager who declares that he isn't interested in college? @Beofett if your family doesn't have connections, upon which you can learn from professional & worldly life experiences, then learning in spite of the crap educational system is your only way out of a life-long wage slavery. There's no shame in facing that reality. Pollyanna-ism won't make reality go away |

How do you respond to a teenager who declares that he isn't interested in college? @Beofett you mistake a bad representation for a bad system. Schools and teachers can not work, but learning is an institution that is fundamental to consciousness. |

child thinks friend doesn't like him/her This isn't a question. If you don't have a child in this position, it may be hard to formulate a situation that is specific enough for an answer. |
