Gary M. Nelson, BSC, PMP (Gazza) is passionate about sharing knowledge and making Project Management concepts more accessible, particularly to new and aspiring Project Managers (of all ages). Said another way, he likes to tell stories to help convey complex concepts in a way that helps the concepts 'stick'. Who says learning shouldn't be fun?
Born in Calgary, Alberta (Canada), Gary moved west to B.C. at the very early age of 2, where he spent most of his formative years - aside from a 6 year stint where he learned to appreciate living in a very small town of 800 people. He then attended high school in Surrey, B.C. and went on to graduate from Simon Fraser University (BC, Canada) in 1989 with a major in Computing science and a minor in English - an odd but useful mix (a techie who can write clearly)!
Gary was tricked into becoming a Project Manager by his first manager, and has never looked back. His international experience includes projects in New Zealand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, the US and Canada, working on projects in the Telecom, Student Information Systems, Local Government and Healthcare sectors.
Having wanted to write books since high school, it took many long years of successful procrastination until he finally felt he had something useful to write about, and wrote his first book of stories in 2012...on Project Management, of all things. Next, presented with the terrifying challenge of writing for children, he enlisted his youngest sons to be the first victims (reviewers and editors) and the Project Kids series of books were born. Several years on, he is amazed to see the books being translated into multiple languages, and reaching into schools and homes around the world.
He enjoys speaking and training, has presented at numerous events and conferences and is also the author and host of Gazza's Corner Project Management Blog and Podcast.
Gary currently lives in New Zealand with his wife, three sons and two cats, and is loving every bit of it.

A Amanda estava aterrorizada. Claro que ela e as amigas tinham construído uma enorme Casa na Árvore e uma espetacular Casa Assombrada – mas agora tudo estava mais complicado. Aqueles projetos tinham sido para divertimento – mas este ia ser avaliado! Ela e as suas parceiras de laboratório têm que fazer um projeto para a Feira de Ciências da escola – mas não têm ideia nenhuma sobre como começar ou mesmo do que fazer. Será que finalmente encontraram um desafio à sua altura?
Entretanto, os rapazes também enfrentam grandes problemas, e o resultado do seu projeto pode ser uma questão de vida ou de morte! OK, talvez não morte a sério, mas podem acabar com frio, molhados e esfomeados e sem tecnologias… durante um fim de semana inteiro!
