Hi My name is Francisca Manning, I was born in San Diego CA. My dream career is happening, I'm currently working as a recruiter, but I would like to take it remotely and possibly work 1 or 2 days a week...If anybody knows of a company..please let me know. I'm a top recruiter specializing in these areas: financial, healthcare and sales. My mom is my inspiration. I don't hang out, I'm a mom, I work. In books no faves, I love all kinds of music.

I will hope that the LatPro Upstate NY group grows significantly, there is great industry and great talent!

I was born in Haiti and always dreamt of working for the United Nations (my Masters is in International Health). I love to travel and visited many countries when I was younger. I love different cultures and always interested in learning about people. Since I speak many languages, I want to offer my services as an interpreter or online language tutor.

My parents are my inspiration and I have had a terrific childhood ( I am definitely blessed). Because of my love of history, visiting museum, one of my favorite place to hang out is the Buddha Temple in Carmel, New York.

I do not really have a favorite book because I am an avid reader and I focus mostly on self-help books (unless Oprah happens to mention a book from a her book club - I may buy it). As far as music is concerned, I am a "golden oldie and a Motown girl".

Since I am fairly new at these social network sites, I hope to meet interesting people so that we can truly help one another grow. Let us pledge that if we hear of anything that can help a person in the network, we should share it.

I was born in El Salvador, but moved to Texas when I was little. I don't know if I have figured out a dream career, yet. Because of my current career I have become a Jack of All Traits; I like the ability to start new projects, manage different groups and constantly be challenged, but it would be nice to have some stability and grow in a specific area. I really love history and I find inspiration in the daring, intelligence and foresight of any revolutionary. Anyone from John Adams to Che is amazing. I move tomorrow, I will get back to you on the favorite place. There are too many great books. I love the blues, salsa, zydeco, classic rock and reggae.
Because my wife and I are not from this part of the world, I would love to make some connections (social and professional) in order to make Upstate our new home.

Hi Ted,

My name is Wanda. I just read your personal profile and I have only met one other person from El Salvador. In what part of Texas are you? I went to Dallas last year for the first time to a business seminar. It was very hot but I really liked it. I always like to visit U.S. cities. I am curious as to what you do? Are you a project manager?

Anyway, I hope to hear from you soon.

Wanda
