I left GM with plans to stretch myself and pursue new career challenges outside of the

automotive industry.

But unexpected life issues can sometimes change even the best made plans.

My work over the past 2 years has been caring for ailing Mom and Dad…

I’ve been called “crazy” for postponing my personal career plans to help them.

I prefer to think I’ve been “uncommonly responsible”.

Now that my parents’ situation is secured, I’m ready to restart my career just as the economy…

suffers a MAJOR downturn and the auto industry…

So restarting my career by returning to the

automotive industry has become un-

“viable”.

The situation is far less than ideal, but I am up to the challenge!
