Eddie Merla received a scholarship to attend, what he jokingly calls, a place called Harvard. His dad had never heard of it and felt that it was too far from San Antonio, where they lived. So he ended up attending Texas A&M University.
A natural introvert, he learned to operate in the extrovert-focused world through Public Speaking, which turned out to be the manifestation of a childhood dream, though he didn't know it at the time.
It wasn't until he received a pink slip after 22 years in the corporate world that he found the courage to pursue his calling. He ended up designing the Project Management curriculum for the Glasscock School of Continued Education at Rice University.
