I have a way of making technology not so scary by breaking down how to use it in bite-sized nuggets of information in common speak that get results.

Receiving a business card where someone uses a free email address (like gmail or hotmail) even though the owner has their own domain.

5. If you could have dinner with anyone (living or not) who would it be and why?

I would have dinner with President Obama to hear first hand his story of having the audacity of hope, the ultimate belief in yes you can and what it’s “really” like to be the first African-American President.

6. Why is having a powerful personal brand important to you?

The internet is filled with people and businesses who perform similar services. Having a powerful personal brand builds the know-like-trust factor and makes me stand out as a leader and industry expert.

Understand the power of your online presence (which includes your website and social media profiles) as a marketing tool. Using it properly allows you to compete with any size company big or small.
