Business

I am a marketing executive with solid reputation of implementing a wide variety of successful marketing campaigns. my work experience consists of both B-to-B and B-to-C initiatives that include all types of marketing strategies and tactics. During my professional career, I have partnered with companies in various industries including software, retail, manufacturing, professional services, non-profit and governmental agencies.  I have worn many hats and have been involved in the strategic direction of several companies. In addition, I am also knowledgeable in graphic design, public relations, social media and web design functions so I may intelligently communicate to designers and clients alike . Several years ago, I started freelancing my skills and started my own marketing firm called Encite International to keep my creative skills up to date and diversify my portfolio. I continue to provide marketing services to my small and loyal client base, while leveraging my contacts to provide synergies between projects.

Personal

I am a recovering frat boy (there's a 12 step program for that, I think) who has occasional visions of grandeur while still attempting to become a perpetual tourist in small remote beach towns where drinking mai tai's are the only decision I have to make. I have a wide variety of opinions and interests that don't necessarily define who I am but provide me with the fun and laughter that everyone needs more of. My favorite past-time is writing essays about myself to sound humorous, witty and sarcastic hoping to attract a potential mate through internet dating sites. I wonder how that came about? My interests include the stereotypical Colorado outdoor activities like snowboarding (need to go more), hiking, biking, running and coming soon, snowshoeing. (I really wonder how many people that put these things on their profile actually do them on a regular basis?). I also frequently play a variety of sports, not only to keep fit, but because I enjoy the competition. I am in no way an obsessed, rabid sports fan, but have been known (on occasion) to yell at the TV during various sports contests. I guess some aspects of my personality are typical male characteristics, which also include sporadic lapses in better judgment, which, surprisingly enough, coincide with alcohol consumption. I wonder what the correlation there is? I also enjoy several hobbies such as very amateur photography (mind out of gutter), videography (also mind out of gutter), reading, cooking and crochet (that last one I just threw in there for flavor). These things (along with work) keep me very busy but don't stop me from the occasional lazy Sunday afternoon on the couch.
