Got in business for himself because... Glen has a Masters Degree in Statistics and found himself in the world of computers and a technical work environment. “One day on the job in front of my computer terminal, I noticed that my interests and my very life was gradually moving away from everyday reality and further and further into the electronic machines and computer languages of my professional career. I was a natural geek, but when I recognized the limitations involved, I decided then and there to find activities to bring me closer to people. Now I like creativity, change and personal growth.”
