Richard Cockcroft

Richard and his wife, Jane, who live in Dallas, both grew up in South Africa. They have two grown children who live in the Dallas area and are proud grandparents to the best grandchildren in the world. Richard loves to travel and is a wonderful cook. We like to call Richard our “African American” board member as he was raised in Africa and is now a naturalized American! Richard works at Gartner, the world’s leading information technology research and advisory company. Richard says, “Technology is a great enabler, even in the heart of Kenya’s slums there are cell phones everywhere and even the occasional Internet café!”
