\n<\/TABLE>
  • Name:<\/B> Eric Rivera
    \n
  • Hometown:<\/B> Aibonito (ah-ee-boh-nee-toh), Puerto Rico
    \n
  • Number of years at UNMC:<\/B> 3.5<\/UL><\/p>\n

    What is your best memory from your time at UNMC?<\/B> <\/p>\n

    Every year at the end of the academic year, when the CON community gets together, I have the opportunity to meet all personnel from the different campuses. I have lots of fun while sharing stories and facts with others and I enjoy the sense of community despite the distances between the campuses.<\/p>\n

    Our four brand values are leadership, commitment to excellence, working together and being a trusted resource. Pick one and tell us a time you witnessed it embodied at UNMC.<\/B> <\/p>\n

    I witness working together every day. When I need help, my coworkers are always ready to lend a hand. We share ideas, solve problems and find solutions to all the opportunities that present themselves.<\/p>\n

    List three things people may not know about you.<\/B>
    \n

    • I like science a lot, specifically everything that has to do with the universe, time and space, quantum physics and E=MC\u00b2.
      \n
    • When I was 19 I wrote many poems and now I do not remember where I put them.
      \n
    • I was developing an idea on how to make a car run on water but I found that someone beat me to it. They used air instead of water, though. I am a dreamer who thinks everything should be simple and free.<\/UL><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
