| Introduction | I've got a few decades experience in Technology and Marketing and enjoy weaving them together to make things happen. My professional career started in Corporate America. I was fortunate to work for some very bright people. I watched and learned. But, the demands of frequent business travel didn't work for me. I found the wheels in Corporate America turn slow. I'm impatient. I work best when I can see the effect of decisions, know the outcome and course correct until the desired result is achieved. This takes a long time in large companies. I needed an alternative where I could combine my passion for technology and marketing and see the direct impact of hard work, good decisions and a pinch of risk. It was 1996 and the internet was beginning to gain momentum. It was the perfect opportunity. I started BEM Interactive. Today we are 20+ people strong. I’m honored to be working with a team of really solid people and many great companies. I'm fortunate. My venture into the world of entrepreneurship 14 years ago has turned out well. Confucious said "If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life." I haven't worked in over 14 years. |
