Ramon's Story

Hey, great to connect with you! Some random thoughts to bring you up to date..... After spending the last 22 years in the high-tech industry working for a number of technology companies including Microsoft and others in London, Toronto and New York City, we're back in the 'Peg! My lovely wife Connie (Swayze) and I have been married for 20 years and she still manages to put up with me! We have 3 girls; Jessica 23, Ashelyn 18 and Aimee 15 that are the keys to our heart and we are so proud of them! I just started RAYRE Consulting and I'll be helping companies with Talent Management (employee recruiting, retention, succession planning, sales coaching and behavioural assessments)solutions. Another passion of mine is volunteering at the United Way of Winnipeg. I'm on the Board of Trustees and serve on the Information Technology Services committee. I love the way that the United Way brings resources together with those in need with the goals to help everyone gain better health, obtain a good education and earn an income to live a productive life. Volunteering at the UW I've learned that Winnipegers have huge, giving hearts. I'm glad to be able to give back to a city that has been so good to me and my family. On the spiritual side, we're heavily involved in Bethel Community Church in Winnipeg and are having a great time meeting new people and doing life through the Word Of God! We participate in a number of different groups at Bethel and realy feel the "community" aspect of Bethel Community Church. I'm told that it "takes a village to raise a child". We've been very blessed with the "village" of parents and mentors at Bethel who ma...Expand for more
ny times have been able to guide and counsel our children based on shared beliefs and values. For fun, the girls keep us busy with their various interests and activities. Jessica is singer in a roots/folk band (The Dusty Roads Band)and her silky voice is something to hear. She just published her first CD. Ash is a premiere level soccer player and has been to the Canadian National Soccer Championships 4 times and to the USA Cup. Aimee is a gymnast extraordinaire and she is truly grace in motion. We enjoy family vacations and our time at the lake. The girls think we are still "OK" to hang with, so Connie and I are going to cherish every moment! Musically, I'm all over the map in my iTunes library - from contemporary Christian rock (Toby Mac, The Parachute Band, Fresh IE, Hillsong United..) ,to the rock tunes of the 70's ( The Who, The Stones, Led Zep, Tull, Speedwagon, Floyd), and Connie even has me listening to some country tunes (Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, Paisley, Chesney, Sugarland)! I love to cook as a stress relief. It's a passion that is growing all the time (and so is my waistline!) I can do some mean Asian when I have the time. I'm into home made everything and I feel that eating well and keeping meals interesting is all about the research, the preparation and having fun trying different recipes. Most of all I enjoy family and friends enjoying a great meal to nourish the body in addition to the conversation and friendship that nourishes the soul! Well, life is short (and getting shorter, I might add!), so let's connect. Maybe we can connect at the VM Reunion in 2010? So long for now and be well! Your friend, Ramon
