I'm Co-founder & CEO of Vidquik, a web conferencing & sales solutions platform. I'm Co-founder of SparkLabs, a startup accelerator in Korea to help entrepreneurs expand beyond their borders to the U.S. and elsewhere. I was previously a Managing Director at the Lunsford Group, which is a private investment firm with holdings in real estate, healthcare and other industries. I was Co-founder & VP of Business Development of GoingOn Networks, a social media platform for companies, and also led our product development where BusinessWeek recognized us in their "Best of the Web" list. I co-founded a couple other startups, raised over $50 million, and love to help other entrepreneurs as much as possible. I serve as a mentor to Mucker Lab, a startup accelerator in LA.

I'm a frequent guest writer to various technology journals, such as VentureBeat, TechCrunch, Mashable and ReadWriteWeb, and I have been published in The New York Times, The Boston Globe and other publications.

I grew up in suburban Chicago, and attended Wisconsin (Go Badgers!) and Columbia University. I have a strong interest in public policy, which is what I studied during graduate school, and why I did the Coro Fellowship, a post-graduate leadership development program. I have lived in Springfield, IL, St. Louis, MO, NYC, Seoul, San Francisco, and now reside in Palo Alto, CA. I love to travel, eat, ski, and play basketball. I'm married to an incredible woman and we love watching our three kids grow.
