WORK EXPERIENCE
* Research Director, Sellman and Associates, Richmond, Va.
Provided alternative, mindful paradigms of thinking and behavior, utilizing constructive concepts of art music, science, math, history, sports, literature, politics and business. Participants learned tools to explore individual core beliefs, relevance for addressing adversity in their lives, their impact on the lives of others, and assessment of motivational energies and priorities. Developing talents through creative, supportive and nurtured encouragement contributed to improved self concept, character development, and interactive awareness of social boundaries facilitating healthy expression and manipulation of our personal environment. Experimental, evidence-based data and individual life experiences provided the basis for multilevel potentials to measurably, concretely expand cognitive skills, reduce institutional health burdens and decrease violent behaviors.
Activities included didactic (lectures, discussions, audio -visual materials) and experiential (group participation, panel discussions, internet, library, telephone interviews, etc.) and other germane experiences.
Research of pertinent literature, defining appropriate population and developing access portals was crucial to successful operation. Proposed market appeal to variable industrial entries, engendering increase productivity, stimulating work environment with reduced conflict offers tremendous potentials. Alternatively, education based programs for main streamed, autism spectrum, "at risk" children, as well, focused developmental programs for infants (potentially the greatest creative arts benefit) was easily designed implementing many of these objectives. 2009-
