More: Business Development professional running ExeConnect and Heck Yah. ExeConnect, my executive meeting company and baby of 14 years, offers new ways for connecting B2B buyers and sellers. It's been a while that I’ve lived and breathed ExeConnect, it continues to evolve. Heck Yah is my new venture that focuses on Happy Hour with a hyperfocus on sharing the uniqueness of local restaurants and bars via video. I was a bartender for seven years in my 20’s and, other than my own business, it was the most fun I’ve had while working. While still bartending, I caught the tech bug at my first corporate sales job, Proxim. I sold technology for years, ending that chapter selling enterprise IdM software. I like the business development side of sales and helping companies present what sets them apart. I created ExeConnect in 2002 and Heck Yah in 2016. They are opposite industries with the same goal – to generate more customers through value and experience. As for Heck Yah, you can take the girl out of the party.......
