"Don't ever let someone tell you, you can't do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you got to protect it. People can't do something themselves; they want to tell you can't do it. If you want something, go get it. Period." – Chris Gardner (The Pursuit of Happyness)

I am fascinated by the intersection of technology, media, and entertainment, and how they spark exciting shifts in our cultures, behaviors, and economies.

Creativity is the heartbeat of life, turning us into key players in history and architects designing and building our future world.

An early leader & innovator at comScore (SCOR), Adify (Sold to Cox), Dynamic Signal, and Firstup. Focused on how to leverage creativity, data insights, and technological innovations to make this world a better place for all of us.

My passion lies in unraveling human behavior and data in our hyper-connected world. I believe the internet and AI are the biggest game-changers since the printing press, merging multimedia, endless creativity, and limitless insights.

I'm thrilled by new ideas and the constant innovation in the interactive space. With a deep background in consumer behavior and technology, I'm an Internet multimedia and data enthusiast enjoying the endless ride!

"Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one." – John Lennon

I live in the Chicagoland area in the summer, and Scottsdale in the winter months. Would love to meet for a drink or just to say hi. Just text me anytime and we will get together.
