My Life Professional life I am currently an Assistant Professor at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. I received my PhD from University of South Florida and both a Master of Business Administration degree and Master of Science Degree in Computer Science from Illinois State University. My undergraduate degrees are in International Business and Organizational Leadership with a minor in Japanese studies. I currently am a managing partner of Clear Water Networks. My research interests are in User Resistance, ERP implementations, IT personnel, and Global IT systems. If you would like to know more about my teaching philosophy, please click here. I have conducted seminars for businesses on Entrepreneurship, Business Plan Development, and Business Growth Strategies and have been a consultant to several organizations.
Personal Life I lived the first 18 years of my life in the city of Tokorozawa, Japan. After I graduated from high school, I moved to the U.S. to start college. I have three brothers and five sisters in my family, who are living in various places around the U.S. and in Japan. Traveling and meeting people from different cultures have always been enjoyable to me - I have visited 18 countries - there are many worldviews of people that I have encountered and I find it fascinating to understand why people think the way they do. My lovely wife, Susan, and I have traveled to several countries together - the picture below is from Egypt. The second is from the San Antonio Riverwalk. The third is our son, Paul, born in August, 2006.
I also like to play various sports - it's much more fun to participate in a sport than just watch people on TV play the sports... I also like playing the guitar and keyboard. I am a committed Christian and believe that Jesus Christ is
the Son of God and that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God. I am actively
involved with Fellowship of Oso Creek. I made
the decision to believe that Jesus is God and follow His teachings in 1992, an
experience which has changed my life. There are many reasons why I believe that
Jesus is who He claims to be and why I strive to live my life in obedience to
His teachings. If you would like to know more why I have these beliefs,

about my beliefs or answer questions you may have. My mission in life is to
love God, reflect His love to others, and live a life of integrity. I realize I
am far from perfect, but I strive to make this mission a part of everything I
do.
