When I joined ActBlue in January of 2007 the company had helped political campaigns raise $18,261,724. When I left ActBlue 14 years later, that number was in the billions. Not only did we change the way money is raised and pioneer new technologies and techniques... but we had a great time doing it.After ActBlue I wanted to take an extended period to focus on my family and check some things off my bucket list. Since 2021, I've learned to ski (now 50+ days a year), learned guitar (well enough that the kids no longer moan when I practice), tackled numerous home improvement projects, and been active on the Boards on which I serve.
