The short version is… I love business. I love the challenge of assembling and growing a team on a project and then determining the best monetization models to form a business. For the past five years, my primary business provides technical and business consulting to the nation’s top ranked chamber of commerce. I’ve also been helped create a few web video startups (Simple Media and Almost Mediocre).
I’m really into networking and think the web is perfect enabler for establishing business relationships. One of my old business partners, Rob says I secretly want to be Tom Peters and he’s somewhat right.
Although I founded More Than Derby, Louisville’s first city blog, my personal blogging career has been one of change. I’m committed to using this site to communicate with others to expand my current network.

After seeing TeeBeeDee’s impressive introduction profiles, I thought I’d do the same.
