About Stephen Zanias

I am a trained engineer with a passion to learn. I often find myself working on new and diverse projects, ranging from engineering to project management, and business development to customer relations. I love to put together disparate pieces of information into a cogent solution - and then explain it to others. There\'s nothing quite like that spark in someone\'s eye when the \"lightbulb\"​ goes off and they\'ve understood something that previously was a mystery.My career to date has provided exposure to a wide variety of fields and disciplines, including software & systems engineering, competitive intelligence,\"Web 2.0\"​ technologies, radar engineering, international business, project management, and corporate strategy.I\'m always up for a new challenge and a new adventure.Focus areas: operations, staffing, data mining/data science (information extraction, link analysis), software engineering, systems engineering, competitive intelligence, international business, cultural studies, education, management, leadership
