Introduction

Hi, everyone from my BU eCommerce class.

Welcome to my blog. Here you can find out more about me. I currently work for BD Biosciences as their e-Marketing Program Manager. I graduated with a B.S. in Biotechnology from UMass Lowell and wanted to become a research scientist. I was offered an internship at a pharmaceutical company in Cambridge during my sophomore year of college in their Information Technology department working on their scientist databases and building the company’s intranet site. I took this position with the thinking at least my foot is in the door and I can eventually float to the labs where my true interest lies. Much to my surprise, I loved my role in the Information Technology department and my experience at Vertex helped land me my first job out of college at a software company. After working for Corporate Software a couple of years an opportunity at BD opened up as a Web Production Coordinator. My dream job; working as a developer for a medical technology company, being able to marry my science background with my web experience. I felt and continue to feel very fortunate to have such an opportunity. I was recently promoted and relocated to the San Diego office, my home town where I grew up. It's great being back near family especially with Zach in our lives now. I am the oldest of 5 kids and my whole family lives out here in sunny California.

Marc and I went to Tahiti for our honeymoon and "swam" into this lemon shark (over 10 feet in length). Let's just say that I couldn't get out of the water fast enough. Even though the locals had assured us that there had never been a shark attack in French Polynesia, my thinking, there is a first time for everything and I surely don’t want to be a statistic! I usually can last about 45-50 minutes underwater on one scuba tank and consumed my tank in about 30 minutes. Yes, I was terrified!

Hi Suzanne,

Great!


By the way, "Lemon Shark"...!

To be honest, this is my first time that I heard of.

Instead, I only know the only and the more common species like Great White Shark...

Thank you.
