I am longing for the opportunity to showcase my talents. I have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and a portfolio of first-hand experience.

I like space between emerging technology and consumers. So many great ideas exist that are applicable, but not relateable, to the average consumer. What I do best is create messages that apply those ideas to a expansive audience.

People are smart and banner ads aren't going to create a connection. This strategy rings true in social media as well. My time with Indianapolis Woman and Local Lisa reinforced my belief that social media is a converstaion. It is NOT a one-way flow of information. The end-goal is really to stimutlate fan/consumer feedback and response/revenue. And just like any worthwhile conversation, you have to be LISTENING to know what to say!

Professionally I consider myself an experienced, driven, self-starting media professional. For more than six years I've been active in digital medial. I have received advanced training in web development, sales operations, leadership and accounting. I develop specialized digital marketing opportunities to help businesses grow revenue and increase interaction.

Personally, I am a family member above all else. I'm a son, big & little brother, uncle, Godfather and grandson. My friends are treated like family. In fact, I do a Pot Luck Thanksgiving Dinner every year just for friends. I am an animal lover as well: Jackson, Cheech, Gandolf, King and Frankie just to name of few. I also voluteer through the Ronald McDonald House of Indiana's Young Professionals Board.
