Who is Tony Tejada?

I am Genaro Antonio Tejada. I am only Tony for my friends. I was born in a historical and beatiful city called La Vega, in Dominican Republic. I am the older of two brothers.

I spent all my childhood in my natal town, where I studied my elementary and high school in the Colegio Agustiniano.

When I got my high school diploma, I went to Santiago de los Caballeros where I obtained my B.S. degree in Chemical Engineering at the Pontificia Universidad Católica Madre y Maestra.

My first professional experience was at Rosario Dominicana, S. A., a Dominican Government owner gold and silver mine. While I was working at Rosario, I lived in Bonao.

I felt nostalgia for my small country, the Olympic City of La Vega, and I came back there. Then I was teaching Chemistry at the Universidad Tecnológica del Cibao.

Since 1990, I am living in Puerto Rico. Now I am finishing my Ph. D. in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras Campus.

Although I chose the sciences as career, I love the arts. Therefore I write from time to time a poem and I put it the music using my old guitar, called by me "The Blonde".
