Donovon Dildine’s Summary
I have taught and managed people in all of my professions. I have helped write internal and external support documents. With the university newspaper, I wrote over fifty articles on politics, finances and technology. I was able to write on subjects ranging from the frustrations of technology, potential future presidents, and even the tragic death of a fellow student.
It is this range of topics that I most enjoy about writing. Stories exist all around us, needing to be told, explained and appreciated. My only desire is to be allowed to tell those stories and help explain events and technology to others.
