I started off my working life doing retail sales of home furnishings. This led into sales, cad design, proposal creation, and project management duties in: kitchen cabinetry, flooring, coatings (paint, stain, epoxy, elastomerics, etc), in floor heating, and custom windows. After making a major move geographically, I landed in a corporate division startup and established a sales and marketing team to facilitate the re-engagement of customer accounts for the coalition marketing division. My roles included working as a Project Manager in the creation of software to allow existing data to be refined and delivered to produce sales results. My work included defining specific database queries required, creation of all processes involved in data parsing and segmentation of query results, and specifying the parameters, design elements, and interface needed for the graphical software interface (GUI) to deliver the parsed data.My time in the corporate world working for BI Worldwide was amazing at times. My personal income went higher than I ever would have imagined as my sales were substantial. I was about to learn a hard lesson about commission and exponentially beating expectations. Five years of success and they let my team go. The reason was they could form a new department and pay them $15 an hour using the system I had designed, refined, and implemented and have similar numbers. Hard work, sharp intellect, and exponentially exceeding expectations mean nothing in the corporate world of ledger sheets.This world is one I have no urge to be a part of. The gift this gave me was humility.The next few years for me are best defined as trial, chaos, disorder and a strange chain of events up until I started 2-1 Enterprises llc. I do work as a strategic consultant, crisis management, SEO, and lead gen in one division. OSINT based private investigations, public relations improvement, specialty services, and freelance investigative reporting in the other.In the last few years I started to see, hear, find, and experience major injustice and corruption involving government entities. I had studied OSINT passionately for years, and recently I began to investigate and write stories read by over a million folks. I'm proud. . I try to ensure that all my published investigative reports are for the greater good of my fellow humans, have impact, and focus on corruption or overstep. As our motto says, “You’ve got problems? We make solutions!” Free consult, it’s the best decision you can make.
