Horizon ISP was the premier Internet provider to businesses and consumers in the Greater Tampa Bay Area. Horizon was the first fully digital, all fiber-optic, Internet Service Provider in its market. I successfully built the business to scale to a large regional ISP through careful architecture and business process design. The architecture and clean operations generated interest from many venture capitalists and larger ISPs. In late 1999, I marketed the company for acquisition and sold the business in early 2000 to a large regional ISP looking to expand into our area. My role in the company was initially to design all operational processes, creating and managing marketing campaigns, and serving as the technology architect for our products. My focus shifted over time to building relationships with key partners, customers, investors, and long-term strategic business planning.
