First, I want to thank William Brennan for this site and opportunity for discussion of important educational issues.

Second, I am open to any suggestions and/or comments on my background and experience in education as I am looking for opportunities to utilize my experience and expertise here on Long Island. I have the unique experience to have been in the private sector for 30 years working for large financial institutions; but have always taught at local colleges in business and education as an adjunct professor.

Finally, feel free to contact me as I am willing to discuss edcuation reform, board of education issues, and management of school districts. I am certified NYS SDA, SAS and SBA and hope to utilize my skills with a collaborative learning organization.

I am interested in others opinions on the central school business management as recommended by the Nassau County Supervisor. Would this cut administrative costs and provide a more efficient method of managing our growing LI schools?
