Welcome

Hi - I'm glad you have visited my career blog.

Originally trained as a lawyer, for over twenty years I have been engaged in a labor love turned full time hobby. I have been creating travel related information products and services in the “Charles Kuralt” mode since 1986 (See attached resume).

Among my present activities, I am a regular contributor/guest on a weekly XM radio show, Left Jab. In that role, I unveil the “Hidden America” with people from around the nation with interesting stories.

In addition, my podcast, Conversations on the Road is about to be syndicated through travelbeat.net.

Because there are cycles in ecomonies and life at times intervenes, career fortunes can go up and down. As a result of the fallout from the "mortgage meltdown", I am now in a "re-tooling" stage.

For some time, I have been trying to respond to these changed circumstances to create additional professional opportunities. Finally, I came to finally appreciate the words of career counselors who have advised that we should consider oursleves mini-companies, and must approach our careers with the same types marketing and professional skills we would use for a marketing or political campaign.

So, I am glad to introduce you to a campaign promoting me, Eric Model.

This blog site outlines some of my relevant past and how it can be an asset to individuals, companies and communities. I look forward to the chance to be of service.

One navigating note, please refer to the index of entries on the left to help guide you. There you can find links to my resume, a career overview, as wellas the particulars relating to my diverse range of experience and expertise.

A friend, Joe Duley, likes to say,“If opportunity doesn't knock build a door”.

I hope this blog site can serve as is a door to an opportunity together.
