He’s now in year two of his degree and is applying his newly honed legal knowledge to his work as a technology evangelist. Tim explains why he’s so enthusiastic about education and how he fits his studies into his busy life. We also talk about our shared passion for technology ethics.  We talk about...

  • Why Tim went back to school to study law when he doesn't want to be a lawyer
  • The differences in being a student in your 20's and 30's vs in your 50's
  • Making time for school while also managing a demanding career and family life
  • How Tim's dad was a role model for life long learning

  • Why tech ethics is an important and timely topic
