I enjoy speaking about CRM and marketing automation to groups of all levels of experience and expertise. I have lectured to university classes, networking groups, and at conferences, but I don't like to call what I do a "lecture". I prefer to teach as an exercise in sharing experiences and ideas. Even with 16 years in the business, I am amazed at how much learning happens on a daily basis.✈ San Diego Chamber of Commerce Breakfast series✈ Six Degrees panel on entrepreneurship✈ Chapter meeting, American Society of Interior Designers✈ Renaissance Executive Forum guest speaker✈ MIT Enterprise Forum, San Diego Chapter guest speaker✈ FORRETNINGSsystemer, CRM/ERP Conference in Copenhagen✈ San Diego American Marketing Association, Art of Marketing conference✈ Arizona Computer Technology Conference✈ SCORE mentors meeting✈ California International Business University✈ California State University, San Marcos✈ International Women's Hackathon, San Marcos✈ Panelist, MIT Enterprise Forum, Discussion on distributed, virtual teams✈ Getting in the Driver's Seat with Marketing Automation, San Diego American Marketing Association✈ Moderator for panel of 4 speakers, Discussion on marketing and IT working together, San Diego Direct Marketing Association SURGE✈ Interactive Day San Diego, Make Your Leads Flow and Revenue Fly with Marketing Automation✈ EnterConf, Belfast Ireland, Driving Success with CRM and Marketing Automation✈ AITP San Diego, 7th Annual Cloud Conference, one hour presentation about leveraging IT assets and personnel to ensure success with integrated CRM implementation✈ San Diego Direct Marketing Association"You provided great material and showed our members how their clients must strive to have an integrated customer relationship management system if they are to compete in today’s changed landscape.

I got the idea for building an easy-to-use email marketing system back in 2000 as a different application of a very early webpage builder. At the time, I was living in a little apartment and working out of my second bedroom, living on macaroni and cheese and top ramen noodles. We started by giving it away to a few friends and it grew organically from there.CoolerEmail grew slowly into a global presence, amassing up to 1,500 clients. As we worked with more clients, we learned a few key lessons:- Email marketing data is often trapped within the email marketing software- Sales people need to know when their leads and clients read and click messages- What people do with your emails can tell you a lot about them- Watching long-term trends of what people who with your emails can teach you a lotThese lessons, combined with what we learned from Teamr, were the inspiration behind GreenRope. As we learned how important it is to get marketing data into the hands of sales and customer service teams, we built the vision of our integrated platform.

I began my travels around the world with a trip to Fiji and from there have explored over 60 countries. I called my journey "A Simple Man's Travels", because at my core, I am simple. Through interacting with people all over the world, I have learned that we all share the same simple desires for happiness, security, and connection.It is the feeling of interconnectedness that binds us all together and is the inspiration behind why I built a software company that helps organizations communicate. If we can communicate better, we can bring a message of hope and love to more people.

Teamr is the predecessor to GreenRope and was originally built as MyTeamCaptain for making it easier for my hockey team to get organized. The basic concepts of group organization - calendaring, event reminders, and automated messaging - carried over to the group management functions we set up in GreenRope.
