I was fortunate to grow up along side the internet. I watched it grow from its dial up "You've Got Mail" infancy to blurring the lines between television/computer/phone.
I have worked in several different fields: Newsroom, Start-up, Corporate, Baseball Coach. Each lends a new perspective on how to deal with people, problems and finding solutions.

I worked closely with the head of marketing, Redwood City Campus. I was given autonomy over the "Pingsta Perks" program. I initiated several early business relationships with: Marquis Jet, Savoya, Quintessentially, Brooks Brothers, and Tiffany Co.
Pingsta, purchased by Multiven in 2007, is a leading provider of intelligence-as-a-service in the cloud. Pingsta members are the top thought leaders, inventors, and innovators of the IT and engineering world. With over 600+ industry leading engineers working in over 50 countries, Pingsta keeps the high-tech world, as we know it, moving.
My responsibilities include:
PR campaigns, media monitoring, media relations, event planning, business presentations, building client lists, research clients, write and edit material for their website, make phone calls, conference calls, proposals, and presentations, etc.
I worked closely with the VP of Sales and the Head of Business Development spreading Multiven's message.
Multiven is a first-of-its-kind multivendor direct-to-expert network infrastructure technical support, maintenance and vendor-neutral trusted-advisor consulting service provider.
Mutliven, founded in 2005, stands alone as the worldβs first network service firm to focus on making all IP network infrastructure work better, irrespective of the underlying hardware, software & technologies.
Before this revolutionary idea, IP network maintenance services were delivered by individual equipment manufacturers in a fragmented, siloed and multi-tiered manner. This caused a lag in the mean-time-to-competent-repair of network outages. Multiven's direct-to-expert support model, multivendor capabilities, and vendor-neutrality resolved these challenges.
Multiven provides ISPs, enterprises, Governments and academia worldwide with an industry-first multivendor direct-to-expertβ’ network infrastructure technical support, maintenance and vendor-neutral trusted-advisor consulting services.
Our customers enjoy an improved network availability and reduced network maintenance and capital expenditures.
