I live in San Diego. I am married to Stephanie (nee Cunningham). We live in a condo we own in Little Italy. I play soccer, write, take photos and, according to Steph, am a card-carrying workaholic.
I recently (June 16, 2006) started working full time for my own company, Dandelife, Inc. It's a social memory site, where people can record their pasts and lifecast them along with their flickr photos, youtube videos and blogs.
Though I no longer work there, I am one of four founders of Red Door Interactive, an interactive agency in San Diego specializing in Internet Presence Management for mid-sized companies, divisions of large corporations and venture-backed start-ups. I was the Director of Information Strategy there. I keep an eye on technology and let our clients know how they can leverage it for their benefit.
For four years I was a board member for Mama's Kitchen, a non-profit that feeds people living with AIDS here in San Diego. I am still volunteering for the Kitchen, helping them manage their systems and web presence.
I used to have a resume that was up to date, but running your own business means you don't have to do that anymore. So I don't do that anymore. What it would tell you is that I graduated from Ohio State University with a combined degree in Creative Writing and Photography. I did well there. I also went to school in Wales for two years taking IB courses and learning photography at the United World College of the Atlantic. I spent a year in Sweden, learning the language, studying psychology and economic history at Uppsala University. Before starting Red Door in February of 2002 I was a Technology Director at the McQuerter Group, a PR firm in San Diego. Before that I was a Software Engineer at PBJ, a dot-com incubator and web development firm in Los Angeles. Before that I was a kid in college with ambitions to make movies and write books. Having taken my talents to the web instead I did business type things. I co-founded the Wi-Fi Special Interest Group at Commnexus (nee the San Diego Telecom Council). I also created but no longer maintain the site Airshare.org which tells people how they can enjoy wireless internet access. I was also famous for a time for a site called Spoke-and-Axle.com which helped people cope with their own popularity by getting them free hosting from their peers. Every once in a while, you may see me speak on a panel at a convention. You may also read some of my articles on Internet technology in such magazines as Darwin and eBizq.
Being from New Mexico by way of Cleveland, I have an affinity for the Browns, the Indians and the Force. I also like road trips in my Mini.
