Michael Paszkiewicz is the Director of Administration at the Rita Rossi Colwell Center. Michael’s fondest childhood memories involve an epic trip across the country in a Volkswagen Camper Van and playing Pac-Man on the first Atari video game console ever released with his mom until their hands cramped. Today he tries to strike the balance between kicking his own kids outside to engage in physical activity and using video games to teach them spatial awareness, grit, and social connectivity.
