Professional History

Director, Fast Company

Private, 101-500 employees, Internet / New Media / Ecommerce industry

Online Advertising Director for FastCompany.com, FastCompany.TV, and Scobleizer.com. I'm based in San Francisco and my job is to make the sales process for a fantastically talented group of sales people as creative and successful as possible. We create opportunities for advertisers to connect with our users through a variety of means - some "traditional" through banners and newsletters, some more innovative through alignment with content and social networks.

Director, TechWeb

Event Management / Conferences industry

For over six months I was the Sales Director for the Web 2.0 Expo and Summit and the Enterprise 2.0 conferences. I worked with a staff of four verteran sales people to bring Web 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 event sponsorship opportunities to companies throughout the U.S. and around the world.  I had the opportunity to attend the November 2007 Web 2.0 Summit hosted by John Battelle and Tim O'Reilly, which was one of the best produced events, and thought provoking events I've ever attended.
