What I do

I am currently focusing on contract and freelance work as part of Lots of Software, LLC. I’m also engaged in a small self-publishing company. While working with these two small business start-ups, I’m also considering my next major employment opportunity where I will be able to fully utilize my unique skills to make a difference.

Until recently, I was a director at QuinStreet, a performance marketing company. My role included overseeing the functioning of their network of B2B sites with management of the editorial team. On a daily basis, I worked with people from around the world at all levels within businesses to provide technical information and resources to the developer community. The sites I oversaw engaged millions of IT professionals. Responsibilities included direct management of Developer.com, WebDeveloper.com, CodeGuru.com, HTMLGoodies, PHPBuilder, jGuru, and JavaScriptSource.com as well as managing the leadership that ran the IT Pro sites, which included eWeek.com, ITBusinessEdge, DatabaseJournal.com, ITSecurityPlanet.com, CIOUpdate.com, Datamation, and many more.

I focused on the customer-facing operation of these sites, and I work with both internal and external teams to drive business aspects of these sites. Planning, budgeting, optimizing, and integrating are just a few of the things I did along with focusing on areas such as SEO and driving revenue.

I’m also actively involved in my community and schools. I have ran a local educational meet-up group focused on technology as well as am actively involved in my kids’ schools. This includes being a member of the PTO boards (including President), being proactively involved with the tech committees, and asking questions as well as offering my support.

I could go on, but the best way to know who I am is to look at LinkedIn and around my site, or better yet, just talk to me!
