2nd year Masters student in Information and Education

Born and raised in Paraguay, majored in Business Administration I always wanted to pursue a Master in Education which I’m finally doing here at UM in the Higher Education program. I led a private university's www.columbia.edu.py biggest campus from 2004 until 2013. I’m seeking to enhance or innovate the way universities can reach a broader audience were I believe education technology would have a major impact in the near future.
