My Marketing responsibilities included design, content development, editing, and SEO, (search engine optimization), for the new business website. Was also involved in creating marketing materials, such as brochures. In my Client Services roles, I created all of the materials used when working directly with our clients training needs.

Acquired By Wachovia Bank

Starting with only my partner and myself, we created and build Info-One into a 200+ employee company. Info-One, a B2B Internet aggregator and Microsoft Certified Solutions Provider, developed Internet based, back office solutions for the financial services industry. Wachovia Bank purchased Info-One in 2007.Along the way we earned Silicon Valley’ Business Journal’s distinguished “100 Fastest Growing Private Companies” for two consecutive years. We ranked 9th for revenue in years 1997-1999. Ranked 24th for revenue years 1998-2000. In this venture I gained valuable knowledge and skills in my many roles. I learned I can face and overcome difficult challenges by tapping into my creativity, social and technical skills, and ability to learn, understand and apply knowledge quickly.•The sale of Info-One allowed me to take some time away from the business world and address personal pursuits, including community service work, and devote more to my animal rescue efforts.

Was an early employee in this exciting Internet start-up company. Using both my recruiting and business experience I was responsible to identify, evaluate, and capture the interest of qualified Internet technology companies to be acquisition candidates, per USWeb’s growth strategy. Developed and conducted nationwide search strategy; evaluated prospect companies key employees and talent base; participated in the due diligence process. • After reaching our goal of obtaining franchise/acquisition contracts with the top 50 companies, USWeb held its I.P.O. in December, 1997.• Was given sole responsibility to research, prepare and propose initial strategies for USWeb’s entrance into Vertical Channel B2B markets. Identified which industries offered the best opportunities for Internet solutions companies like USWeb. Today Internet B2B solutions within vertical channels is a huge, world-wide business. We were one of the very first to open these doors.

First I was hired as a Senior Contract Recruiter responsible for building the team for Novell's new venture, Univel. (See below) Then Novell renewed my contract for a new project. I was responsible for helping to design, test and implement the recruiting arm of Novell's new Human Resources Intranet. This included integrating internal software legacy systems with Resumix. When implementation was complete, I designed the employee training program and traveled to all Novell sites to train management on using the new Intranet for all recruiting activities.
