Nearly ten years in the making, my first rock album 1MoreElephant is complete. In a partnership with Telecom for Change, 100% of the album proceeds will be donated to the Notre Dame of Maryland University’s Center for Caring with Technology to support academic success for at-risk nursing students working to shape an economic future for themselves and their families by caring for others."After hardly playing music at all for 10 years in order to focus on building Intelisys into what it is today, Rick Sheldon slowly rediscovered his love of recording and writing original music. During this period, Rick posed the following question to himself, “What would my musical goal be if I were not trying to earn a living making music?” Rick’s twin answers were to become the best possible rock guitar player he could be, and to write and record original music to the best of his ability, regardless of the audience."Previously feeling the pressure of trying to make it in the music business, prior to his career at Intelisys, Rick no longer felt this pressure, which gave him freedom to explore everything he loved about music. When music became a hobby it became the greatest thing for him. Thank you for purchasing this album and supporting Telecom for Change in their efforts to help Notre Dame of Maryland University School of Nursing’s Center for Caring with Technology to provide programming to support students’ academic success."

My humble beginnings in telecom. I was a sales rep working B2b accounts in northern CA. Found out I was not so bad at this thing. Managed a few offices through transition to LDDS. Saw the writing on the wall and decided to start a business with my best friend, Rick Dellar. I think it worked out ok!
