My name is Andrew Penn and I work in a multi-mission maritime security organization. I currently live in Northern California, near the water of course. Professionally I am nearing an event horizon of time served and staying the course or changing the terms of the deal with my employer. My long term goals are to continue/increase my financial stability.
As far as leadership experience goes, I have been a supervisor of some variety for most of the past two decades. A favorite leadership quote, “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn’t sit for a month.” – Theodore Roosevelt. The reason I appreciate the meaning of the line is it speaks to a need for self responsibility which I think is sorely lacking in our current day.
I am not interesting in the slightest and mean to keep it that way!

It is great to meet you Andrew. Those sound like good goals and it looks like you are one of several Teddy Roosevelt fans in the class. I look forward to working with you this semester.
