Good judgement often comes from experience, and experience often comes from bad judgement... there is no reason to make the same mistakes I did. I'm all about delivering value, so if there is anyway I can be of assistance in anyway, please don't hesitate to reach out. :) Here's a few "professional" highlights... 1 - I founded MastermindTalks (MMT). An annual invite only event for entrepreneurs. 16,000 entrepreneurs have applied for an event capped at 150 people. 2 - I ran and facilitated a $25 000 a year mastermind group for entrepreneurs for over 2 years. 3 - I'm the host of a well respected business podcast called CommunityMade. 4 - I've hosted well over a thousand entrepreneurs over dinner throughout the last 6 years leveraging concepts shared in my book, Mastermind Dinners. 5 - I'm a former learning chair at the Entrepreneurs' Organization.

Earned chops launching/running several daily deal sites, where I learned the technical complexities of email deliverability / email optimization.
