Dear Mr./Ms./Mx.,
I am writing to introduce myself and my website to you, with the hope of building a better tomorrow for us and the world. My name is Elvis Ortega-Ochoa, and I hold a PhD in Education and ICT (e-learning) and a Master’s Degree in Education and ICT, with a passion for the intersection of Computer Science, Education, and Business Administration.
The purpose of this letter is to provide you with a better understanding of who I am and what my website represents. I invite you to visit my website and explore its various tabs. The website is designed with an accessible interface that suits everyone’s needs, and I welcome suggestions for improvement through the Contact tab.
My ultimate goal is to create a pedagogical model based on pedagogical conversational agents (see Tecno-pedagogical Projects and Academy tab). I believe this framework will have an essential role in shaping the future of education, not just on Earth but also in the future interplanetary world. You can find more information about my research interests and achievements in the Curriculum Vitae and Research tab.
Apart from my academic pursuits, I prioritize my physical and mental health. As an avid runner and calisthenics enthusiast, I believe that exercise plays a vital role in maintaining overall well-being. If you share my passion for fitness, you can find more information about it on the Health tab.
Finally, I am looking to collaborate with like-minded individuals who share my vision for the future. I welcome individuals from all countries and backgrounds to reach out to me if they are interested in my work or would like to start a conversation. Additionally, if you would like to support my endeavors, please check out the Wishlist tab.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. I hope it has given you a better understanding of who I am and what I represent. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Elvis Ortega-Ochoa, PhD
