Marketer from Plano, United States
I am looking
for someone to help me with my idea for a startup
I am good at
Leadership -- I am a decisive, persuasive leader who's managed global teams in the past. I am a competent speaker who's presented to audiences of 500+, and excel at written and verbal communications. I am established and active in the digital and social space.
My 12 years' experience at a publicly listed, international company has taught me how to deal with all levels of management across a complex organisation spread throughout the world.
Right now I market seed- and Series A-funded startups. To me this is the most interesting part of a business' life cycle, and I am invigorated by the challenges my clients face at this phase of their development.
I am a tireless, creative campaigner, a roll-up-your-sleeves worker, and a positive agent of change. I don't just talk theory -- I actually get on with stuff.

Things I have done before
Organised an arts auction in 2005 for 40 of New Orleans' top and upcoming artists for a corporate social responsibility project. 22 of the 40 works were sold on eBay and are now housed in private collections from Oslo to Perth.
Created a blog on WP to promote the sale of a limited edition blue guitar made by one of Chicago's top luthiers.
Traveled extensively. In my last corporate job I had permanent desks in London and Hong Kong. I once experimented traveling to six cities -- Paris, London, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Siem Reap (Cambodia) and Manila with just one carry-on.
Survived cancer. I am proud and privileged to still be here.
