Hello, and welcome to the International Business and Marketing Web Pages.  My work and teaching history is long and varied.  I have recently traveled and taken students to Cuba using a Dept. of Treasury permit.  While there we learned a great deal about communism, socialism, Latin Culture, and of course, cigars!  I brought back many wonderful items, including my new husband, Armando Valdés Rivera!
