I got my start in newspapers and magazines, learning how to write to be read. After a few years as editor of BBS Magazine in the early '90s I helped innovate online journalism for Digital City and America Online, where I later cofounded and ran product and content for AOL Mobile.

AOL Community Products was next - running services such as blogs, chat, message boards, home pages, groups, realtime social search.

I spent time helping Webs.com transition to better products and raising membership then led product and content for Sprint 4G services called XOHM. Mobile broadband caught my interest beyond Sprint and Clearwire leading me to Asia to help develop plans for products and content for a nationwide network.

Back in the U.S. I got involved with advising startups and also writing about them for a site i founded called Locl.ly (later sold to Street Fight Magazine where I continued writing).

Next up was Senior Vice President, Digital Products & Content at National Geographic, then cofounder and SVP of Product for Urgent.ly, VP of Product at POLITICO and currently VP & GM at the AgeTech Collaborative™ from AARP.
