I wasn't the typical high school kid. Instead of after school sports, I would come home and start the dial-up modem so that I could teach myself HTML and fulfill my goal of having a presense on the web. Not long after that I earned my first, real commission check from banner ads on my websites. I wasn't even legally old enough to cash it at the time (thanks mom and dad!). Since then, I've applied that same passion to all things digital marketing. I was lucky enough to find my passion at a young age and I'm excited to stay on this path!

I've collected many trade show badges throughout the years and have now traveled to three continents to represent the companies I've had the priveledge to work for.
My favorite destination thus far has been Bangkok, Thailand.
Sure, anyone can purchase traditional banners to fly their company flag, but why not take up the actual tiles of the hotel floor?
I've been honored to attend many speaking engagements for various industry trade shows.
