Before retiring in 2019, Fernando Colina had a long career in Information Technology, having worked for large (IBM), small (CDB Software), and mid-sized (BMC Software) companies. There he held technical, management, and executive positions.
Fernando was born in Madrid, Spain many years ago. His only claim to fame is his marriage to the beautiful Rita Wright, Diane Foley’s sister and James Foley’s aunt.
He, along with Rita, volunteered in Worldwide Marriage Encounter, a ministry focused on the support of marriages and families, a passion for both. He also served in the James W Foley Legacy Foundation’s original board of directors in 2014 before rejoining it in 2023.
