Education, the web, photography. On the bad side of 30. Mac-fiend.
I have been hired as the new full-time faculty member at The American Language Institute at The University of Toledo. Naturally, I am quite happy – especially considering the fact that I just applied to get interview experience (well, and because I wanted the job). In any case, I received the offer yesterday and am now the youngest member of the faculty.
So we had a picnic for the A.L.I. today and got chased away by a massive thunderstorm.
Below is a slide show and a video.
P.S.: The N95 survived the incident without any issues. 
The American Language Institute had its welcome ceremony for new and returning students on Tuesday. Here are some pictures taken with the new Nokia N95.

Alex is currently working at the American Language Institute where he teaches ESL, functions as technology advocate, and trains students and faculty.
Before A.L.I., Alex was a doctoral fellow in Philosophy of Education, Applied Linguistics, and ESL. He also acted as technology liaison.
During the doctoral stuff, he worked on marketing for Nokia. He also supported, designed, and developed Keynote presentations for Al Gore's The Climate Project.
Before all of that, he was a windsurfing instructor in Denmark, Italy, and Germany.
