Career
I’m an executive entrepreneur with a passion for people and emerging technology – and more than 29 years of experience marketing and selling products to businesses and consumers. For as far back as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by technological innovation, and have been fortunate enough to build my career around it.
Before launching Ziftr and myVBO, I spent 11 years as President and Executive Vice President with PC Connection, a Fortune 1000 reseller of high tech equipment. Over the years, I’ve founded more than nine companies in the technology, computer reseller and gaming industries. Two of my companies, Zones Inc. and Mac’s Place, grew to be significant players in the PC direct marketing industry before being sold. I hold two technology patents, two game patents and have several patents pending for software products I developed that are currently being sold and marketed by one of my three existing companies. I also sit on a number of different boards, from technology to medical device companies.
I possess the unique ability to think strategically in both a technology and marketing mindset and I enjoy combining the two in my various projects. I have a good track record of turning companies around and am consistently drawn to new challenges that allow me to take a hands-on approach and make a difference.
