Project Manager at Mango Bay Internet and Writer - bobmc@togsolutions.com
Cleveland/Akron, Ohio Area
Over my career, I have worn many hats: Project manager, career services guru, trusty assistant, writer, etc. My wide array of experience has allowed me to work in numerous industries and environments, and has led me to Mango Bay Internet, a Cleveland-based IT services firm, to manage their various Web design projects.
Most recently, I had, in collaboration with my colleagues, established a career services program at a Cleveland-area post-secondary school, including development of career workshops, establishment of externship program and devising a process to guide students into job placement. I headed up the collaborative efforts of all Directors of Career Services in sharing best practices by presiding over the monthly conference call and moderating the Career Services e-mail list.
In addition, I have worked to re-establish my home-based business, TOG Solutions, in an effort to provide writing, marketing and transcription services. With my career services experience, I have expanded to include resume writing and other career-development services to individuals.
I also have worked in real estate, both in commercial and residential. Until 2007, I was also a licensed real estate salesperson in the state of Ohio and have strong marketing experience in this regard.
Any people interested in connecting with me for the purposes of learning more of what I have to offer are free to contact me.
