Hi, I’m Liz Kennick
My Teaching Experience
I earned an AA in Elementary Education 1979, but switched to Technology and spent the two decades as a Computer Network Engineer, then Software Engineer, then Systems Engineer, and finally Vice President of Client Technology at Morgan Stanley in New York City. A favorite responsibility was developing and delivering training for users and supporters of new or upgraded systems.
