I am the son of a shopkeeper! As I mentioned earlier. In my twenties, I took ownership of a family business. I turned around our failing business into a success in two years. I\u2019ve used those lessons managing a neighborhood shop to advance as a highly-motivated executive and consultant with special expertise in eCommerce, Cloud Computing, and Data Center Infrastructure Management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I provide full cycle business development expertise to B2C and B2B retail and technology companies. I help executives realize their goals as a trusted resource that can assist with all Cloud Computing and Infrastructure Management aspects of the business. Including performance, security, sales, software development and code deployment-related requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My expertise includes both channel and direct sales, sales training, sales team development, and management with a special emphasis on identifying existing assets (technology, case studies, account base, etc.) and creating the messaging that drives new customer and partner participation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I presented at roadshows and conferences including\u2026 WordCamp Ann Arbor, WordCamp Detroit (2011) – wow that seems like a long time ago now \ud83d\ude42 WordPress MeetUp Ann Arbor, ExpressionEngine Conference Portland PeersConf Philadelphia, Meet Magento (India, Indonesia,Netherlands, USA, Vietnam Magento Live (UK, AU), Imagine in Las Vegas<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve also had guest appearances and contributed to several nationally syndicated podcasts where I focus on eCommerce and technology-related segments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
