Summary
Relocate, virtual, contract are all okay. I learn new industries quickly, work well as team member or leader, and can help you especially when you need help with new business models or other online revenue initiatives. I am also comfortable in science and engineering worlds, public presentations, rapidly changing environments, and smaller but ambitious companies or business units.
