Tactics include: web design (WordPress 6+ years), social media, product testing, tech support, office I.T. and training, customer and sales support, trade show tech lead and staff. 

Outdoor adventurer. Retired the first time at the age of 32.

Lived aboard a catamaran nearly 7 years.

Formerly worked for famous millionaires Bill Gates and Paul Allen. I've handed Bill a beer three times! Turned down rides on Paul's jet on several occasion because I enjoyed hanging with my wife and my border collie on weekends instead.

I have quite a collection of business cards with my name on them as I was promoted often. It's a good thing!

Looking for my next adventure.
