Christopher M Dugan

My name is Christopher Dugan, COO, staff writer, content specialist and the man behind the mastery of the Ever Widening Circles website (www.everwideningcircles.com).

I earned a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Vermont in 2006 in sociology, minoring in English, and electing to take French, physics, biology, chemistry, and psychology courses in addition to the required pathway. I also played hockey from youth through high school and continued playing hockey in some capacity - roller hockey - for the UVM club team from 2003 to 2006.

Obviously my focus in college wasn't web-based, and as such I'm a self-taught site developer, specializing in content writing and search engine optimization (SEO), making him a natural fit for handling the technology end of the intensely competitive auto industry. It was here I honed my abilities: I grew global traffic, enhanced the three websites' offerings from stock content to customized content, managed an ever changing inventory of vehicles, and overall managed an eCommerce team of five people and six websites, several blogs, and a plethora of social media.

After my departure, I worked freelance briefly until a chance meeting with my current partner, Dr. Lynda Ulrich, and we founded EverWideningCircles.com, LLC, with the goal of bringing some light to the world and bringin up the average of its denizens by asking better questions.
