Networking is second nature to him, so is sales, and building partnerships, but his real passion is being disruptive and doing something different with the potential to scale. Specialties: Cross Channel Marketing, Fundraising, Strategic Planning, Business Development, Leadership, New Media, Digital Signage, Wireless Networks, Mobile, Social Media, Brand Marketing, Engagement, Entrepreneurship, Wireless, Non-profit. He's failed many more times than he's succeeded, but has also had more shots on goal than most, so he's ok with that. Benefunder is something he's very passionate about and for the first time it has him doing just one thing - matching donors with cutting edge researchers and innovators!
