Yes, This Site Is All About Richard Tesmer

I was a Navy baby.  My mother was traveling from San Diego to LA to see my father for Mother's Day.  I, her yet unborn son, had different plans. 

Nearly to LA, in a town called Whittier (yes, the hometown of the infamous Richard Nixon), I decided it was time to be born.  And so I was.

Over the years, due to my Mother being from California and my Father being from Nebraska, we moved back and forth about every two years until I graduated from high school, Grand Island Senior High School.

After that, I made my career in software development, teaching, consulting, and significant application development. At one point, I created my own company, which I sold several years later. Sadly, the company I sold it to folded during the Real Estate Crisis of 2009. From there, I rebuilt my career as a pure consulting project manager. I built a PMO from scratch and Directed the PMO for the next 12 years at MadWolf Technologies.
