In this I.T. age, it's difficult to not visit many
sites on the internet, surfing for interest. Many site developers
include pages that talk about themselves in a way that's self-complementary,
seemingly, just for the sake of it. My first thought was,
"why not a bit of fun, and do the same thing?"
Further thought led me to believe that, because I am solely
responsible for the development of the af-x® approach
and the education and training of it, any indication of the
"roundedness" of the life and career of this individual could,
indeed, be of interest to either prospective clients or prospective
trainees.
So I present here categories of experience OTHER THAN those
directly associated with af-x that may support that
indication.
