"In addition to my instructors' recommendations, the praise I receive from students, colleagues, and peers, as well as my passion to learn, spawned desire for me to retain my career in education," Segreto said. "My academic activities, accomplishments, and recognitions have enhanced this desire.

Segreto's noteworthy accomplishments at ECC include presenting a lecture in 2007. The lecture, titled 'Hello, China!', walked through the process of visiting China to conduct business as a U.S. employee, highlighting the dos and taboos. In 2008, he co-presented a session, 'Technology is the Key to Engaging Student Learning', which demonstrated a PowerPoint game to engage students' learning and reviewing of course content while practicing soft skills such as communication and teamwork.

He also follows a famous quote spoken by Winston Churchill: "Never, never, never give up!"

"I live my life by remaining positive and professional," Segreto said. "This might seem easier said than done, but if you love your profession - i.e., your duties, your colleagues, and your peers, it's easier done than said."
