Thank you 2006, Onwards to Another Great Year in 2007!

It’s been a great year for me and yet another one to add to my experience in the industry.

I was given a chance to write for a great blog network, thank you Tim Stay for introducing me to Know More Media.  Since I started blogging, despite of my hectic and erratic schedule, I’ve loved every minute of it and still loving it.  It has given me a chance to fulfill one of my dreams – to be a writer and be heard.  Thanks to all the readers who dropped by, shared their thoughts and still reading.

Going to Gold CoastI had the opportunity to travel to Australia, to learn the aviation industry.  Met a lot of people and learned to live and breathe their culture.  I traveled for business but came back home to gain a new best friend.  The challenge of focusing on a project that was considered to be “gold” and taking care of a department while I was out of the country was rewarding.  Pressure was intense and the expectations were very high.  Working with a company that took customer satisfaction to a higher level was priceless.
